I’m Happy to be Called a Radical: How lazy people hide the truth from the public

Let’s have an honest discussion. Otherwise, I would have just left it alone.  But over the last several weeks, since the previous election in 2023, I have had more people refer to me and people I know as radicals than I have ever heard.  Let me tell you what they really mean when they say such things.  They intend that they are too lazy to fight for their country and to do the right thing for themselves and their families.  Most of the world, all through history, is pretty lazy, and people would rather shmooze their way into a better life than work for it.  And I am the opposite.  And I find among other people who are also being called radicals because of our support of Trump, and of a dislike of RINO Republicans, and many other things such as abortion rights, pot legalization, homeschooling, and the economy, that the real frustration is that they are too lazy to do the right thing, and they are frustrated by other people who aren’t, and it exposes them for the losers they are.  If only they weren’t so lazy and soft-minded in intellect, the world would be a much different and better place.  The name-calling is in anger for those same people feeling exposed for being less than they should be.  They have let the universe down by not working to make it better.  Instead, they let some pin-headed loser of an attorney attempt to shape local politics with personal destruction so they can have an easier time with a labor contract with a radical teacher’s union.  Or they support little bits of Marxism in their businesses and political climates because they are too lazy to compete with other companies for market share, so they turn to lobbyists hoping to get an advantage through the power of government.  When someone calls someone like me a radical, what they mean is that they are too lazy to do the right things and always fall into evil because of personal failures they wish to hide behind a façade of social merit.

Let me explain another thing: some of the most vile characters that we are dealing with these days never turned away from a Christian nation calling them names.  People like Saul Alinsky, who wrote the handbook of left-winged politics, Rules for Radicals, put the title on his cover, embracing the term as a badge of honor.  Conservatives have been suckered over the years by church interpretations of Christ to turn the other cheek and focus their efforts on getting into Heaven. Actual Luciferian devils of all kinds have been assaulting us to our faces and literally trying to bring Hell all over the earth, and we have been too lazy and too complacent to do anything about it.  Allowing evil to spread like wildfire gives us this world of garbage we see today.  A place where public schools teach kids not to use their minds but to have sex in kindergarten and to be taught by a transvestite who wants to do a strip show in our city streets for children.  Yes, if you open Rules for Radicals to the very first page, the dedication page, you will see that Saul Alinsky dedicated his book to Lucifer.  So, it’s not a conspiracy theory; it’s a fact and an audacious one.  And when I talk about the Blood Cult of Baal, this is exactly what I mean: it is easier for lazy people to sacrifice something of value to spiritual rulers than to actually do the work themselves to make the world a better place. 

Saul Alinsky used to hang around the mob of Al Capone in Chicago and learned from them how to defeat Mainstreet, Christian America, which would then become the playbook Democrats would use to destroy the Republic of America.  To do to the rest of the country what they did to Chicago has ruined the city to this day.  Republicans care too much about what people think of them as being considered good Christians, socially rather than at the level of their very souls, and they could be exploited with name-calling.  It has worked for the last hundred years to such an extent that it has gone overboard, well beyond what Saul Alinsky could have hoped for.  People like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have openly embraced this notion of being called “radicals” because that’s what they were.  They wanted to be.  And on the backs of that effort, Bill Ayers and his crazy Weather Underground wife launched the political career of Barack Obama, the kid born in Indonesia or Kenya by an unknown dad of communist origin (we at least know that much), to destroy America while the polite conservatives just sat there and avoided being called names.  Such people would rather see the world burn before anybody calls them a disparaging name because they are so concerned with external visuals that they are terrified that people might see what they are really all about.  That is how evil spreads in the world, and Saul Alinsky, through the gangster Al Capone, understood it and knew how to use it to destroy the concept of America; they have been doing it to us all this time, and some people like me are sick of it.  I was never OK with it, and I’m not signing up to allow Hell to reign over the earth. Instead, I am committed to making on earth as it is in Heaven.  And I’m not putting up with evil in any form.  And if that’s radical, then so be it!

We have an excellent restaurant in my local area called Son of a Butcher at Liberty Center across from Pies and Pints.  I recently had dinner with a large group, and there is a backroom for such engagements.  This restaurant is filled with very eccentric artwork, and this particular room is dedicated to criminal conduct; it has mug shots mainly painted over the table you eat of Snoop Dogg’s mug shot and that of Marylin Monroe.  And it has the antics of Bonnie and Clyde looming along one of the large walls as crystal skulls peer at you through their antics of hell and damnation.  I love the place!  Not so much in the reverence of such images but in the admission.  In another room at that restaurant, they have what they call the “Godfather” table, which is very large and meant to reflect the participants of that famous movie.  This artistic approach to a dining experience says so much about our current culture, which Saul Alinsky had figured out and Democrats have been exploiting for years, especially recently.  People, like the Cult of Baal, would instead work to be part of a mob and gain the strength of the masses rather than stand as an individual and work to make the world a better place.  If they could find power in group behavior where they only had to appease a mighty criminal overlord or some demonic entity from the netherworld, then they would do it because they were lazy and would otherwise be found to be detriments to the world because they feared being called names for fear that people might learn what they really were, so their public image was of utmost concern to them.  To the point where they were entirely controlled by it and by those who held judgments behind the name-calling.  But not everyone is trying to hide who they are.  Some people are proud of it.  And these days, when the bad guys call you a radical, we can all wear it as a badge of honor.  Because if we have made them angry enough to call us that name.  Then we know we are doing the right thing.  If doing good is radical, then I’m thrilled to be one and will be motivated to do a lot more of it.

Sometimes Doing the Right Thing is to Break All the Rules: The answer to Mark Levin’s ‘American Marxism’ question

Sometimes Doing the Right Things Means You Have to Break the Rules

One of my favorite lines from my new book The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business is that it “is the losers of the world who make up the rules of life.” There are many lines like that in what I’m calling a conservative book on strategy, but that one is more relevant to me due to the nature of our current politics and wokeness in our corporate structures. I’ve read many hundreds of books from conservatives and liberals over the years. It’s always been frustrating to see liberals putting out books like Rules for Radicals and The Coming Insurrection while we have failed to answer. In contrast, on the conservative side of things, the books come out as warnings about what’s coming rather than giving people a means of dealing with them.  Liberals have been audacious in assuming they were important enough to steer the entire human race in the direction of their choosing, making up rules that we as conservatives always follow to the letter.  The essence of all our outstanding literary achievements and countless hours of talk radio has been to work within those rules and be good people by pointing out the evils of liberalism.  All the while, the rules were made by radicals and losers from the beginning to doom us all, and we have been following those rules right over a cliff to our peril.   I love books, all books, by all people, even by the other side politically.  If it’s a book with binding on it, I likely love it.  Because even books by those I disagree with teach me something.  And as I said, I have read a lot of them and have been waiting for someone on the conservative side to come up with some book on conservative strategy.  But it never came, and now with things the way they are now, I figured I would just sit down and do it myself, resulting in The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business.   The publisher sent me a few advanced copies ahead of the August 28th release date, where the book will be available wherever books are sold.  Yet, I did take a moment to enjoy holding the book and going through it due to the long journey it took to produce it.  Finally, a book on conservative strategy was here.  I didn’t care if I wrote it or if somebody else had.  I was just happy to have it in my hands.

Its been the most frustrating thing to watch, liberals creating rules we all live by, then as we were killing ourselves with terrible thinking, such as Critical Race Theory, a lack of defense about capitalism, a lack of defense of our family structures, our religions, our president, our businesses—everything, the liberals who have been writing these books on strategy for years were rolling in the mud like pigs after a feeding frenzy.  How could we help facilitate so much evil in the world just by following the rules?  Well, that has been their trick, the liberals, and they figured that out about us many years ago among the gangsters of Al Capone and Bonnie and Clyde.  The gangster era was what was left of the old gunslingers of the Wild West. It was a direct result of progressivism that crept into American society at the end of western expansion.  Instead of facing down our enemies on a dusty street in a duel to the death in the pursuit of justice, our criminals hid in the shadows and functioned outside of our Christian sentiments.  Once Democrats in Chicago observed the Midwest antics of Capone’s mob and the elusiveness of Bonnie and Clyde all up and down the Mississippi River, they had their game plan, which they use aggressively to this day.  The book was Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky, and the top people of the Democrat Party used it to create the kind of world we are dealing with now.  They made the rules because they had been losing as a progressive movement that desperately wanted to take over America from Europe. We followed those rules to our present circumstances. 

I read the books, especially Rules for Radicals and The Coming Insurrection, and was thinking, “these aren’t very good books.  Why are they so popular?” They looked to be self-published, poorly written monstrosities that I wouldn’t think would survive the book reviewer critics of liberalism.  Yet they made it through, picked up some big endorsements, such as Hillary Clinton, who was obsessed with Saul Alinsky for many years, those works made it to the top of the Democrat platform at the national and international level.  Meanwhile, as I said in the video above, this isn’t negative toward Mark Levin’s new book selling like hotcakes in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, American Marxism—conservatives read and write books pointing out the problem. Still, we never are pretentious enough to write our strategy guides to answer those problems once we see them.   I think Mark’s new book is excellent.  It points out the history of Marxism as it has infiltrated America for years. I’ve been pointing that out on this blog for decades too, but what are we supposed to do about it?  American Marxism says we need a movement to stand up to Marxism.  But how do we do it?  Well, that’s when I decided to sit down and write a counterpoint to one of my favorite books of all time, The Art of War by Sun Tzu, which is 2500 years old.  I thought it was time the human race has an update and one from an American perspective.  Something that would answer the question that Mark Levin and Sean Hannity have framed for us.  But a means to achieve success at all the levels of our lives in a way that hasn’t been done before. 

So if I was you, dear reader, which I have been, the question on your mind is why did I write the book and not some genius war general or former president of the United States?  What makes me qualified?  I tell quite a story of my background, which you can find on the sidebar of this website that will offer insight into that very question.  But honestly, I think many of us could have written The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business.  Most of us already know the answers, but we are too nice and too good to do often what needs to be done.  We need to understand why breaking many of the conventional rules that have been imprisoning us morally is the correct action.  And of those rules that have been holding us back is this notion of pretention.  That any of us should never assume that we have the answers to save humanity, well, I would say, why not?  Why not you?  Why not me?  Why should we surrender to a hostile political left full of hate and evil?  Because the rules of our life tell us too?  Well, that’s why one of my favorite lines from the book states that the losers often make the rules of our life because they have to find some way to cripple the good and just so that they can have a shot at winning the future.  And we have generally accepted this sabotage gleefully because our value judgments were in being good people who follow the rules.  But when the bad guys made the rules, then what?  Well, that’s what The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business is all about, and I’m very proud that it’s coming out to offer options where many of us just haven’t had them before.  Sometimes, to do the right thing, you have to break the rules.
