    You don’t have to be well-organized nor strategic. Being chaotic and uncaught often works. I listen a lot to Behind the Bastards and Lions Led by Donkeys. It has given me the impression that effectiveness of a given behavior is a horseshoe, where the ends of the shoe have greater impact than a balanced style.

        Surprisingly, it happens more often than one expects. Just listen to the podcasts I mentioned, all sorts of people, good and bad…usually the bad, get away with being weird in all the ways. Audacity is bit of a cheat code, because most people don’t want to disrupt their daily life. This cedes agency to people who do things.
