They never call out the leftists; instead, they simply try to soothe leftists&#8217; destructiveness while accepting their premises.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, politicians are a minority amongst conservatives. Most conservatives are regular folks who live and breathe their principles \u2013 as is the case with a Hispanic vendor at the Tulsa rally who got harassed by a couple of white Black Lives Matter protesters. Instead of backing down, the vendor went full, and beautiful, Alinsky on the whole BLM premise.<\/p>\n<p>Saul Alinsky fought for the wrong side, but he was a smart tactician\u00a0who came up with excellent rules for fighting an ideological opponent. Three of his rules are pertinent here:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>RULE 4: \u201cMake the enemy live up to its own book of rules.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>RULE 5: \u201cRidicule is man\u2019s most potent weapon.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>RULE 6: \u201cA good tactic is one your people enjoy.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With those rules in mind, enjoy what happened in Tulsa when a mostly white group of Black Lives Matter protesters showed up at the Trump rally. The video begins when a\u00a0white guy wearing the\u00a0<em>de rigueur<\/em>\u00a0leftist virtue mask (his has \u201cBLM\u201d emblazoned across it), and a t-shirt saying \u201cI know words. I have the best words \u2013 Stable Genius,\u201d spots a man who looks Hispanic. The white guy seems shocked that a Hispanic man is\u00a0selling Trump merchandise while wearing a Trump hat and a t-shirt with a \u201cGod Guns and Trump\u201d logo.<\/p>\n<p>The white guy opens with a\u00a0classic white person microaggression\u00a0question:<br \/>\n\u201cWhere\u2019s your daddy from?\u201d The vendor answers, \u201cAmerica.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The inquisition continues: \u201cWhich part?\u201d (You can see the white BLM brain think, \u201cMaybe he means Latin America!\u201d)<\/p>\n<p>The vendor politely replies, \u201cEl Paso, Texas.\u201d Moreover, boasts the vendor, his grandparents fought in World War II and his father fought in Vietnam.<\/p>\n<p>White guy\u2019s equally white girlfriend suddenly realizes he\u2019s making a racist idiot of himself and pulls him away. The vendor isn\u2019t done yet, though. He hollers after the man, \u201cAmerica first, all the way, bro! F**k BLM, bro. F**k BLM. You know, babies\u2019 lives matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For leftists, that phrase &#8212; \u201cBabies\u2019 lives matter\u201d \u2013 is fighting words. Another white dude, with a useless mask glued to his chin, leaving his mouth and nose exposed, and wearing a \u201cJuneteenth\u201d shirt, takes up the battle.<\/p>\n<p>Chin-mask guy has read the\u00a0<em>New York Times<\/em>, so he knows that America began oppressing black lives in 1619. He\u2019s therefore ready with the question he\u2019s certain will silence the vendor. \u201cHave babies been oppressed for four centuries?\u201d he asks. Chin-mask guy is clueless that aborting\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.numberofabortions.com\/\">62 million babies since 1973<\/a>, including a disproportionate number of black babies, is oppression.<\/p>\n<p>The vendor is having none of it. \u201cTo this day, I have not met nobody who owns a slave, has slaves. I never met one slave. Stop living in the damned past, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Faced with this provocation, chin-mask guy starts babbling about systemic discrimination. And that\u2019s when the vendor turns the table on him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo days ago, I lost my money. How about you reimburse me for that. I\u2019m a minority. Give me your money,\u201d he says, holding out a mock pleading hand. \u201cI\u2019m a minority. Give me my reparations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, the chin-mask guy is done talking about systemic oppression. He\u2019s offended. \u201cFor what?\u201d he demands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause I\u2019ve been oppressed. I\u2019m a minority.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Like Pavlov\u2019s dog, chin-mask guy latches on to a magic word. \u201cYes,\u201d he says, nodding his head rapidly, \u201cyou\u2019ve been oppressed. You\u2019ve definitely been oppressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo give me my rights. You\u2019re white. Give me my reparations. Give me my reparations!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chin-mask is on board. \u201cYes. You have my promise of reparations.\u201d He does not, however, dig into his wallet. Instead, puzzled, he asks, \u201cHow am I going to give you reparations?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a foolish question because the vendor has already told him how real reparations should work. Chin-mask guy is white and he\u2019s admitted his white guilt, so he, personally, should dig into his pocket.<\/p>\n<p>With that foolish question, chin-mask guy just gave the game away. If he genuinely believed that he, merely by virtue of being white, was personally responsible for oppression, he wouldn\u2019t just hand over his cash, he\u2019d pull a Mother Theresa and give all of his worldly goods to minorities.<\/p>\n<p>But chin-mask guy doesn\u2019t feel that at all. He feels that\u00a0<em>you<\/em>, the taxpayer;\u00a0<em>you<\/em>, the recent immigrant;\u00a0<em>you<\/em>, the person whose ancestors fought and died to end slavery;\u00a0<em>you<\/em>, the black conservative, should pool\u00a0<em>your<\/em>\u00a0wealth and give it to his virtue-signaling cause.<\/p>\n<p>A smart friend of mine said, rightly, that we need to start calling leftists on their shtick and ridiculing them. We need to go full Alinsky on\u00a0them, and Mr. Vendor played Rules 4 through 6\u00a0perfectly. I know that I enjoyed watching Mr. Vendor force chin-mask guy to answer for his own book of rules and then ridiculed him for his inability to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Hispanic vendor in Tulsa uses Alinsky tactics against a BLM supporter.
