Lucifer USA
To understand things, it’s usually not enough to look only at the “official” history. That’s the history of the winners—or those who consider themselves to be winners. It’s much more important to look at the fringes, the radicals, and the nonconformists.To understand the U.S., it’s certainly helpful to have read people like Noam Chomsky, but it gets really interesting with such enigmatic figures as Saul Alinsky.Demonized and idolized by both the right and the left. Reviled as a communist, a Christian, a Satanist, and a traitor to his own country.
His writings were far more influential than one might think—from the Tea Party to the Occupy movement. Hillary Clinton, Obama, and the Alt-Right all draw on his ideas.He’s something like Gramsci in Europe. A radical leftist who was studied in depth by the radical right. He writes it himself in the preface to Rules for Radicals: “the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom—Lucifer”
How should one confront the devil? We need the light, but darkness arises from it as well. Emancipatory movements that oppress the world. Oppressors who liberate the world. Good, evil—none of these are standards for understanding anything.
I think we need a new metaphysics, a new radical dialectic, a completely new understanding of a globalized, networked mass society.
Most likely, as always, it will boil down to a new religion—a new dark age. We can still do something. We can still think differently… let’s give it a try.

Don't worry, boys, we'll weather this #storm of approval and come out as #hated as ever - #SaulAlinsky to his staff shortly before his death, June 1972.

Saul David Alinsky :
- Radicaux, réveillez-vous !
- Etre radical : manuel pragmatique pour radicaux réalistes« Ce livre s'adresse à ceux qui veulent changer le monde. Si Machiavel écrivit Le prince pour dire aux riches comment conserver le pouvoir, j'écris Être radical pour dire aux pauvre comment s'en emparer. » Saul Alinsky

That’s why we can’t have nice things 🤷🏻♂️

Das chinesische Schriftzeichen für #Krise besteht aus zwei Zeichen: aus dem Zeichen #Gefahr und aus dem Zeichen #Möglichkeit, günstige #Gelegenheit.
Alle Krisen können uns günstig sein, wenn sie in der Demokratie nicht von #Nazis für Geschäfte missbraucht werden.
#SaulAlinsky schreibt in Knast-Büchern, ansonsten kam er in der #Organisation von #Bürger- und Stadtteil- Bewegungen kaum dazu: #Chicago der 1930er Jahre mit Ghettos, Gewerkschaften und #Rassismus: Anleitung zum #Mächtigsein #Lamuv

Everyone else is catching up, slowly.

In post-war era of the 50’s and 60’s, the #American right-wing learned to frame elections as choosing who gets to pick federal judges and lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court.
The liberals and left-wing internalized the lesson of culture wars, soft power, and entertainment.
The reactionaries actually paid attention to #SaulAlinsky.
Judicial #power defines legislative #culture defines electoral #politics.
And that’s why we can’t have nice things.
