FOX News' Tucker Carlson has a gift for ridiculing Sandy Cortez so completely and hilariously, it makes her spitting mad. In doing so, Carlson expertly applies Marxist political theorist Saul Alinsky's most important tactic from his manual Rules for Radicals: Ridicule.
Ridicule is very effective because it is nearly impossible to counterattack, and it infuriates the person ridiculed, often prompting a reaction that works to the ridiculer’s advantage. --Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals
And this is exactly what Carlson did in his most recent riff on Cortez. The ridicule was SO biting and SO hilarious, it caused Cortez to overreact and accuse Carlson of sexual abuse. A charge so ludicrous and unrelated to Carlson's segment, it makes Cortez look even MORE desperate and unhinged. So Tucker used the Marxist tactic on the Marxist. Enjoy,
