Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgement to the very first radical ...known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom - Lucifer. - Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals, p. ix, Random House, New York, 1971

People like to quote that as some kind of evidence of his Alinsky’s leanings but I actually take it more in the Miltonian anti-hero sense of Lucifer and, at most, as revealing ALinksy’s preference for overturning the establishment, no matter the cost.
