7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8. Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.

10. The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11. If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through to its counterside.

12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

One of the most clever tricks consistently played by the Left is that they will grasp onto and promote a moral wrong, and exploit the psychological phenomenon that is groupthink to convince people that it is a moral right. They use the power of emotions to give it credence.

And they polarize anyone who calls them out on the absurdities of their position. They are relentless in their ways--so much that by pushing the negative hard and deep enough, it will eventually break through to its counterside and make their opposition appear wrong.

That is why we must recognize these tactics. It is imperative that we understand them so that we may learn how to counter them.
Thus, I present to you the thirteen rules to counter the Left's power tactics (each responds to each of the 13 aforementioned):

1. Power is the obsession of the Godless, the impotent. It is a weakness. Those who seek power and to flaunt it are plagued by their insecurities and inadequacies. They rationalize their flaws by claiming entitlement and victimhood. By doing so, they excuse their
(9)
(9)
lust for power that they seek to use to control and dominate others. Do not be afraid to call them out for their hypocrisy. Rebuke them, for this will expose their insincerity.
(10)
(10)
2. If people show that they are ignorant, you have to show them why, but do not mock them for it. Teach them. Show them without rising to anger.
(11)
(11)
3. When the Left attempts to distract you with trivial things or misdirect with issues that are irrelevant, ignore them. Do not cooperate. Instead, point them back to the issues that matter. Then stand firm and do not waver. Stay on the topics that matter.
(12)
(12)
4. When the Left tries to turn your own principles against you, rest on the principles that most everyone respects. Fall back to the basics of moral argument, if you have to, and wear it like armor. Lift them up as equals deserving of the same rights that you hold dear.
(13)
(13)
5. When the Left attempts to ridicule you and resort to character assassination remember this: Ridicule is a double-edged sword. Ridicule is often a front for inadequacy. If they use it against you, make them look into a mirror.
(14)
(14)
5. (Continued) Combine retaliatory humor with points that expose gaping flaws in the arguments of those hiding behind ridicule, and make them appear foolish and irrational.
(15)
(15)
6. When you can see the Left enjoying themselves in their efforts to fight with you, increase your push-back and double your efforts. By putting up a good fight, you will make the opponent struggle, making it difficult for them to enjoy themselves.
(16)
(16)
7. When the Left starts to become evasive to their past efforts, hold them accountable to their past efforts. Make them face up to what they are avoiding. Back them into a corner until they have no choice but to address it.
(17)
(17)
8. When the Left appears steadfast in getting you to engage them, consider whether the battle is worth fighting. Give yourself the ability to control the momentum, and make them engage you on your terms.
(18)
(18)
9. Never let your emotions control you. Always think rationally and consider the threats that you are faced with. Be certain that your fears are real and that you are not overreacting to the issue at hand. Think before you act.
(19)
(19)
10. When the Left becomes relentless in their tactics, converge with others like you to increase resistance and push back harder. Never let up. The moment we drop our guard and allow their momentum to increase, they will gain footing and it will become harder to push back.
(20)
(20)
11. Always point out the hypocrisy of someone who always plays the victim. Professional victims are always the first to intimidate and antagonize. Point this out at every opportunity, so that the rational folks among us can see through their facade.
(21)
(21)
12. Never compromise with your unalienable natural rights. Do not allow the slippery slope to totalitarianism to ensue by making concessions that gradually erode your natural freedoms. Remember, when the Left asks for an inch, they will take a mile.
(22)
(22)
13. The most vicious tactic of the Left is to eviscerate their opponents by isolating them from any support structure they might have (i.e. friends, family, colleagues), by turning others against you. If the Left becomes determined to destroy you, you must be prepared to
(23)
(23)
defend yourself. But keep well your rational thought; you should never harm the innocent or over-react to a threat. Remain calm and collected. Respond accordingly and stay aligned with truth. Let others see that it is them, not you, who is the irrational bully.
