Ted started off as a smart guy, but the MKULTRA abuse he experienced left him with a broken ideology.
Many parts of his manifesto are problematic, and I hope people don't think it's good theory.
Some excerpts:
The leftist is antagonistic to the concept of competition because, deep inside, he feels like a loser.
The leftist seeks to satisfy his feeling of inferiority by cultivating attitudes of superiority. He is not the only one to do this, but he is the one who goes furthest in this direction.
Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good, and successful.
The leftist is not typically the kind of person whose feelings of inferiority make him a braggart, an egotist, a bully, a self-promoter, a ruthless competitor. This kind of person is too eager to seize the initiative and too insensitive to feel guilty for his aggression. The leftist is as prone to manipulating others as the more right-wing person, but his main goal is to avoid straining his own conscience.
Ted also has some jabs at reactionaries, but he's not a leftist for sure. There's better literature out there, from an actual leftist perspective that people could be reading instead.
I think he committed the error of giving a political attribute to a certain cathegory of people.
In those excerpt, if you switch "leftist" with "twitter social justice warrior" you can feel who really he is mad at.
Honestly it just feels like he projects a lot of stuff that overlaps with fascist ideology as well as having a horrid concept of actual leftism, then again Ted having a fried brain makes sense given he decided to just randomly send out bombs to harm workers.
So far score wise I feel the kid that did in Abe via the had the best consciousness not to turn into a reactionary bent on harming innocents and instead applied his suffering to a target that has materially contributed to that situation (Abe family and the moonies). i.e. Ted is an example of a mfer with no class consciousness deciding to "solve the problem".
You made a weird joke about terroristically murdering people. I don't think the secret service has jurisdiction, but yeah you honestly could be contacted by the FBI after this. Hope it was worth glorifying a psycho.
Also, ingenuity isn't an applicable word when addressing an audience who did not find you funny/clever
I'm not even going to copy paste what you wrote. Suffice it to say you can pretend I'm crazy but federal agencies ain't coming for me. Good luck with the interviews...
My afternoons at 18: sips tea reading Noam Chomsky’s Failed State
My afternoons at 30: sips vodka reading Unabomber’s Manifesto

Um, ok. Please don't murder a lot of innocent people?
He was preaching in his manifesto, it's unbelievably based.
It'd be Walden 2 Das kapital returns if it weren't for him trying to blow up random people.
Ok, just a couple of guilty ones then
Edit: oh I almost forgot
/s
I don't want Secret Services rifling through my stuff because some of you don't have the ingenuity to tell this was a joke
That is not how you use ingenuity
Yeah sorry, English isn't my first language and saying "some of you aren't smart enough" seemed a bit harsh
Yeah, I understand.
My advice? Be harsh.
Terrifying

Dude, seriously, take it down a few notches please: it's all happening in your head

Thanks for the block request, person who literally approves of the unabomber
Should't it be "You're welcome for the block request"?
That escalated quickly!!!
I don't know if 12 years qualifies as "quickly", but it escalated for sure
Not exactly. Read the manifesto. He was incredibly based, and would have gone down as Marx's spiritual protege if he hadn't decided to bomb people
that's exactly what I was referring to 😂
But yeah, I found the book insightful for sure
