    You don't have to feel bad for him btw, yeah its fucked up what he got subjected to with MKUltra but the fact that his response was for the most part "I'm gonna kill guys for knowing how genetics and psychology works or going to a computer store" instead of "Im gonna get revenge on those fucking feds" and then not having any remorse for getting random secretaries or students caught in the crossfire literally just makes him a piece of fucking dogshit.

      I wrote to him as a teenager and he was super nice to me and sent me a book list that surprisingly wasn't fucking dreadful. Even if I think he's an unhinged eco-fash prototype these days.

      But yeah, I am definitely on a list for life for that.

      Literally one of the first things he complains about in the manifesto is that minorities "choose" to be offended by harmless non-derogatory words like negro and oriental, so this is correct.

          The fact that he also literally only mentions capitalism a single time, while describing it as a "leftist catchphrase" among other "catchphrases" like racism, imperialism, homophobia, ethnic rights etc, is a pretty fundamental indictment of his societal analysis.

          Its literally just clownish that you could spend that much time trying to analyse society and you dont take capitalism into serious account, and its pretty clownish for this fact to not be more acknowledged when people talk about his work on the left. I remain entirely convinced that his reputation as a "mad/misunderstood and mistreated genius" is a deliberate op to mislead people from effective analysis and solutions into just eco-reactionary nonsense.

          Imagine being worried about leftists in the early 90s, like 12 years deep into the Reagan revolution

    Anprim memes are funny and all but Ted is maybe not the greatest person. It sucks that he got fucked over by the state, and it sucks that his response was off the walls

    On one hand he hated leftists and most of the people he sent bombs to were random professors so you don't really have to hand it to him
    On the other hand, :NOOOOO:

      He believes that oversocialization and feelings of inferiority primarily drive leftism, and derides it as "one of the most widespread manifestations of the craziness of our world".

      we're very crazy and unsane in comparison :what-the-hell: maybe if the most unhinged person thinks youre insane maybe youre on top of things

        The terms “negro,” “oriental,” “handicapped” or “chick” for an African, an Asian, a disabled person or a woman originally had no derogatory connotation. “Broad” and “chick” were merely the feminine equivalents of “guy,” “dude” or “fellow.” The negative connotations have been attached to these terms by the activists themselves.

        :yea:

          The things he describes as being driven by inferiority though is shit like "Being mad when someone calls you oriental or negro" or "sympathizing with minority groups you are not part of" and also "Hating America, the west and white males".

      Meanwhile if he'd organized an effective domestic insurgency or mass movement against modern technology, they'd probably lock him up and never let us hear a word from him again. Also he'd be mysteriously "revealed" to be a racist pedophile who was funded by the Russian deep state all in one press release.

    They moved him to a medical prison facility and out of ADX Florence recently. They'd only do that if it was bad. Hopefully he got to see some grass, trees and sunlight on his transfer. ADX is designed to deprive you of everything natural.

    I was going to ask who would want to write a letter to the violent murderer Ted Kaczynski but of course it's a Red Scare fan.

    "yeah bro thanks for th letter and all but shut the actual fuck up and get to work you lazy bitch"

    Chad Cuckinski strikes yet again, fucking sad that someone so funny is going to die in 2 years.

    I rly wish they let this mf use social media (if he'd even want to)
