Honest to god, it was ingrained into my head as a child that he wanted to kill anyone who used a computer. But seeing how ridiculous that sounds today and how it sounds eerily similar to any critique of capitalism, I’m thinking he has parts of a communist ideal.

It really looks just like someone who could be a radical leftist but decided to become a fascist at the last minute. And it’s also so fucking absurd it helps me understand why there’s a guy that thinks everything big is an op

I guess I’m basically asking how he is read by the hexbear powers that be

      A significant mental shift took place in graduate school, Kaczynski reported, during a period when he considered having a sex-change operation.

      He said he recalled setting up an appointment at the University of Michigan’s health center after weeks of fantasizing about becoming a female. By the time of his consultation, however, he lost his nerve and lied to the psychiatrist. Leaving the building in shame, Kaczynski said, he developed a violent hatred for the psychiatrist.

        Medical gatekeeping was still really harsh back then, too. Julia Serano devotes an entire chapter to it in Whipping Girl. Either way, I don't think HRT alone would have been enough, sadly; there were a lot of other brainworms to untangle there.
