Doesn't work that way. Leftists made a whole big deal out of Rules for Radicals, especially that quote, but it's just leftist's internal propaganda. You can't make your enemy live up to their own rulebook without power. Only power can make and enforce the rules. That bit of "wisdom" is allowed to persist in pop culture because it allows ground-level leftist pawns to feel like they're revolutionaries, and not just pawns for already-existing power.
