"You should read Ted Kaczynski's two books, Technological Slavery and Anti-Tech Revolution!

He raised some good points but my thinking goes like this. The environmental and humanitarian and problems caused by technology are much older than the industrial revolution and go all the way back to agriculture. That means we would need to be hunter gatherers, not Amish, in order to escape it, but who wants to be a hunter gatherer? Today's hunter gatherers have no art or science.

I far more support Kaczynski than those that are rioting, looting and murdering, the exact OPPOSITE of what Dr. King's words, and deeds....yet they so much deserve our sympathy and support.....way too many snowflakes around these days.

@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus The Unwashed, low iq masses and its consequences have been a disaster for the intellectually gifted.

Ted himself has said multiple times that the "experiments" had little effect, since it was mostly just a survey where they asked some uncomftable questions at most. The srudents at harvard where not experimented on or had to take any substance, all this allegation does is lazily try to distract from Teds message, which to this day no one can disprove. Its especialy funny when these retards then talk about "muh progress" he could have made (which is literaly the thing Ted tells us is wrong with the world).

@@nervesinapattern7261 wow must be tough

You overestimate the significance of the IQ test. Its premise is that pattern recognition links to intelligence and obviously the correlation is not 1 to 1, and the way they test pattern recognition is not 1 to 1 with actual pattern recognition. It has also been shown to fluctuate a lot and education is an importnant factor, so someone who does more math on a daily basis is obviously going to have a higher IQ. Getting into Harvard means studying and training your IQ test ability. I gotta say that I believe that Kazinsky's intelligence is extremely high though

That is correct according to my research. It wasn't the writing itself, it was the content that convinced her.

@@jeanettewaverly2590 & Andy Pete ... there's a lot about Ted's story that's tragic--for everyone even observing, like us! The Doc here was being as grounded in "facts" (documentation by entities considered in authority) as much as possible. Something happened to this little genius boy that NEVER should've happened!--that's what we could really use to learn about!

Atomic Sonic Amen to that.

@@atomicsonic8610 A few things happened to Ted Kaczynski, from feeling alone when he needed his mother - due to hospitalisation as an infant, apparently - to allegedly being subjected to verbal abuse from either one or both his parents (likely his father from what I have read to date), being too gifted to remain in the same class as his peers (age-wise) and so being put up about 3 grades which he hated, something he referred to as horrific and which made him subject to bullying by the older kids. Then he went to University at 16 and unfortunately he was subjected to a series of intense experiments designed to see how well he (and other students selected) could be broken down by someone they trusted who was in a position of authority, a test designed to aid the CIA but which damaged Ted permanently, leaving him understandably paranoid, cynical and angry at others plus feeling unheard and understood.

If only he left every one else the hell alone.

Yes, if he had used his genius mind for the benefit of mankind instead of fear and violence, he may have come up with a cure for cancer or AIDS. Too bad.

I think there's a lot more the man could have contributed to educating the masses and maybe ultimately shaping society, but the fact I can listen to his manifesto on UKposts and we are familiar with him is extraordinary and not even close to a waste.

The mk ultra brianwashing def traumatized him

It has not, millions of zoomers are now awake to the technocratic nightmare planned for humanity.

@A named Dwarf Between two ages; America's role in the technetronic era - Zbigniew Brzezinski

If Kaczynski had published his manifesto without committing acts of violence, virtually no one would have read it. Even after gaining infamy through his crimes, there's still a small minority of people who have read his manifesto. Of the people who've read it, I suspect none are in a position to act on it; Kaczynski was also diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, so there's no telling how genuine his opinions were, either. His writings could merely reflect his delusions caused by psychosis.

It's too bad he was caught.

I wonder what he's been thinking in prison all these years watching technology's effect on society. Probably "I WAS RIGHT."

It’s a pretty tragic case, if you really think about it. It sounds like he actively sought help multiple times but incompetent professionals did nothing to attempt/weren’t able to really help him, and in turn his mental issues essentially ended up destroying him.

@@reelgangstazskip I disagree. Because most people think he was crazy and won't even read it. Had he not done the bombings, he could have actually used technology to convey his message.

Meet you at the hardware store...

Most people can agree with this statement, at least to an extent, yet would probably vilify Ted if this were to happen today.

@@kvdrr Oh, thank goodness then...

You need act it not just appreciate it.

Exactly. The main reason people have such a reaction to these ideas is because Ted wrote it. If this was from an anonymous author, more people would give it a chance and see that it makes a lot of sense. While I don't think industrialization and technology are the only cause of societal decline, but I definitely think it plays it's part in it.

@@Tehz1359 You might be right, but I don't think Ted would agree lol. Halfway through, he actually makes the comment that nobody would care about his writing if it were not delivered with violence. I'm not sure if that's a reference to him, but he clearly says that in his manifesto. That was actually one of the more concerning undertones of his writing: He saw violence as the most primitive (but most direct) way to exercise freedom. The upsetting part is that he was apparently 100% correct lol

Whatever, Marxist in the past killed milions of people, but Marxism is still lectured in academia nowadays and people appreciating it don't have such moral doubts.

@@Tehz1359 you're wrong. Nothing he said is original. And what do you mean "give it a chance"?? As if we're all one brain doing the same things.

It is quite often the case that mental health professionals don't want to imply that psychological experiments can torture people. I am not saying this is necessarily the case, but I have noticed the frequent dimissiveness of the mental health profession to the existence of severe trauma from psychiatric confinement and seclusion. And they punish those that leave mental health services and they criticise those that make websites and campaigns against punitive psychiatry, except they don't look to more severe cases where people are chained etc, and extrapolate to what punitive psychiatry in a place like the US or UK might do. I went on a tangent there.

Berkeley, in the runup to the mid sixties. would NOT have been a good place for him. Maybe Oberlin or Reed College, a lot smaller and not so into outlashes against society and overachieving Professors and Thesis students at least as smart as Kacynski, but with intolerant social skills. He would not have fitted there at all. Knowing the academic "process" and dept. politics, it's my guess he was squeezed out, and it wasn't with lubrication.

When are you going to publish your manifesto?

The "psychologists" tortured and brainwashed him as an adolescent. It was their little government funded psyops research project with Ted being the lab rat. all in the name of "science" and ego glorification. Is it really any wonder he became a terrorist? The whole premise of those entitled buttholes disgusts me. I imagine Ted himself may have felt the same from time to time.

The delusion wasn't his provocative thoughts, the delusion is his egalitarianism...

You're one of those Jerries who think they are Rick's. Stating things as obviously wrong as they are right.

That is the power of things like hollywood fantasy when the reality is people or groups seldom stop what they are doing even after satisfying demands. That is why most countries don't nego with terrorists.

I trust jess

Donald Trump?

Poor kid

I think it is because he's mildly autistic. Everything, especially his IQ, first the bill.

we've learned a lot about what children need to thrive since then. nowadays babies in the nicu are constantly stimulated and comforted both by medical staff and by their families. i know this because at my job i process high dollar medical bills. when we get medical records for nicu stays, we sometimes get the nurse's logs. so every time a nurse would visit a patient they note exactly what was done. which means several pages for each day of service containing notes that the patient's vitals were collected and the patient received "low light and quiet conditions, with blanket and pacifier provided. stimulation with song and rhythmic movement." they are held and sung to as part of their medical treatment. not only because it's necessary for their development as healthy humans, but also because of basic human empathy. (when it's a toddler or child, they also receive play therapy and the notes are extremely specific, down to which toys they select.) it's genuinely tragic that a several month old infant would suffer pain and fear from a sudden ailment and then be left alone in a bassinet for days. even if the baby doesn't grow up to become the unabomber, that's unacceptable.

Yet people, while knowing this has happened to a damaged individual and the ramifications, still judge and blame the damaged adult simply because they haven't been so affected themselves. It baffles me how they are ok with that.

Agree. My son is so extremely sensitive, he actually caused his own personality disorder of schizoid because of how he viewed the painful insincere world. Thankfully with therapy, he was able to see the light again later. But it took an incredible amount of work and proper medication and for a therapist to bring to light the autistic genius that was always at his core.

You forgot he was a victim of 3 years of mk ultra brainwashing

I also am an INTJ (on the MBTI) and a 5 (5w4 to be specific ) on the Enneagram and apparently quite a few other INTJs and 5's, too, have hyperacusis to various degrees, as do 2 of my 4 brothers, so there's likely a genetic influence or susceptibility, and it definitely causes a lot of difficulties due to our extreme sensitivity to what's often called or dubbed 'environmental noises' which can truly cause frustration, irritation and extreme anger in some sufferers. There's no real listing of these the DSM but they're definitely issues, and I think I'll ask Dr. Grande to analyse and discuss these.

These mental health professionals just love to shit on anyone that they feel morally right in examining under the microscope.

I saw a documentary about the Unabomber and you are right, it was his sister in law, not his brother who suggested that Ted had written that manifesto. Too bad this guy chose to act out with violence and terrorism. With his IQ, maybe he would have found a cure for cancer or AIDS.

the MK Ultra experiments more likely than not did give him mental torment, leading to the violence. I believe that he's spot on in the manifesto, though what he did was unnecessary. For this reason, it seems completely unjust to have him incarcerated given that we don't incarcerate people with issues that are out of their control who commit acts of violence. It's futile.

Riley you're VERY wrong.

Hmmn....you do keep banging that drum. I'm not so sure it really is important to keep mentioning it. I suspect that, even if true, your quoted statistic only applies because such people would already be in an asylum of some sort and they would be violently attacked by other inmates with similar conditions, not by non-psychotic types. Such people really are a danger to themselves and others and should be confined for the good of all. That's not to be judgemental, simply practical and realistic. Stigma is neither here nor there in the context of mass slaughter.

@@MrMatthewhg I have had organic psychosis due to congenital brain damage in my life, and currently medication keeps it at a low level. I agree with you actually - during exacerbations of my psychosis I have been a danger to myself as well as others (others when threatened by them/delusions, I would lash out) and I agree that I should have been sectioned under the mental health act. I should have been confined, however I should not have been abused in the confinement, but that's a more political management factor. It is rare of someone with psychosis / a history of it, to agree that confinement is needed ,but what are you going to do when I'm self harming repeatedly and lashing out at delusions about people? And "violence" , if you cover verbal assault and threatening behaviour, is much more common than if you just include things like grievous bodily harm and actual bodily harm (charges in the UK where I come from).

Mermaid Mansion it has very little to do with someone pointing them in the right direction. In most cases, their brains are wired differently.

I think Ted's withdrawn nature more than lack of empathy lead to crime. Someone without empathy can realize the value of cooperation. He rejected society, and sought to change it via terror vs leadership.

No mention of a mentor. When Harvard, et all. allow a CHILD to attend you'd think it would be a good idea to have governance of some kind. Even if he was an "emancipated minor" like Howard Hughes, good advice and stewardship would protect both him and the Universities liability, especially today.

@@annewandering I’m not even saying that there isn’t some deep state shit going on. Im just saying the first person to be saying shit like that would be someone like John Mcaffee. A guy who hid in the sand for hours after the police showed up to his house when there was no warrant for arrest. This guy was addicted to and manufactured drugs.

@@annewandering Don't be Stupid. Oh, too late.

@@rickavory what are you talking about

From his own mouth he claimed that majority were mainly surveys so, at least in his case, it doesn’t sound super drastic, and still doesn’t explain or excuse becoming a terrorist

Was he an "emancipated minor" and therefore could sign off on the paperwork??? Unwilling??? please explain?

Trey Woodward It wasn’t Timothy Leary, it was Henry Murray. Stop spreading misinformation.

LSD don't make you go crazy bro

@@waltersobchak7275 LSD is hallucinogen. A classic psychosis.

Walter Sobchak It can, easily. Which is why you should always have a babysitter standing by, in case you need to be talked down from a bad trip.

Exactly. This event was MAJOR for Ted. ...and anyone who has taken psych 101 will understand why.

Hope it was not a reaction to a vaccine ?

@@kathyshouffler2632 You just know it was. His was the first generation to start getting them at scale.

I concur.

I've been waiting patiently for two years now.

Kaczynski has written two books from prison, they're excellent: Technological Slavery and Anti-Tech Revolution .😊

Let me help you out here; he blew up complete strangers 😉.

@@b.g.5869 So what? If we find out Isaac Newton was a serial killer does he become wrong?

@@fifiadan It would make him morally wrong obviously. But this is irrelevant to my response. The person I was replying to said they didn't see his Kaczynski was delusional so I reminded him that he sent bombs to people. You're horribly confused.

@@fifiadan Yes, obviously it would mean he was morally wrong. Are you on a lead paint chip diet or something? I get the impression you just learned about the genetic fallacy, don't understand it, but are eager to refer to it. The genetic fallacy of course has nothing to do with genetics in the sense of DNA etc (this is important to point out when talking to a dunce like you because otherwise the next thing you'd be saying is "What does this have to do with genes?!" etc). The genetic fallacy occurs when one tries to say a claim is wrong because they're a bad person. The canonical example is that Hitler was a bad person, and vegetarian, therefore vegetarianism is bad; obviously this reasoning doesn't hold water. Obviously, if Isaac Newton was a serial killer it wouldn't mean his ideas about mathematics and physics were wrong; it would however mean he was morally wrong (i.e. a horrible person). Kaczynski is objectively a horrible person (morally wrong). This in and of itself doesn't mean his theories about the effect of technology in society are necessarily wrong; it doesn't mean they're correct either of course. However, this case is different from Hitler and vegetarianism because in the case of Kaczynski his ideas about technology and society directly inspired his homicidal behavior. Therefore while his evil deeds have no bearing on the validity or lack thereof of his rambling screed evaluated in isolation. However, since his homicidal deeds were directly inspired by his views on technology and society, the latter cannot be completely divorced from the latter. Obviously there's something fundamentally wrong with his world view if he thinks the supposed evils of technology justify killing strangers who have any connection to STEM fields. You need to understand an idea before you try to apply it. You're horribly confused.

@@b.g.5869let me help you out here; he got his warning published in the New York Times and Washington Post and here you are talking about him and his ideas 40 years later. You may not agree with his methods, I don’t, but it’s indisputable they worked and there’s nothing delusional about that.

I worked with him once !

Isn't Shipman basically a mystery? He said nothing, wrote no manifesto and gave no interviews? Fred West or the Yorkshire Ripper might be more interesting as far as UK serial killers go!

@@nighttrain1236 there are interviews he was even the go to DR for a regional TV news channel in the 80s

@@nighttrain1236 he's not a mystery. He is a bit of a cypher. I think what is of particular interest is the institutional cover and bias that allowed him to commit his crimes. The Wests and co are fairly conventional serial killers/predators in that the horror they wrought is of the type and severity that you'd expect from the most depraved criminals.

@@jamesw17 It's a bit like Jimmy Saville. Both were able to commit crimes from behind the cover of a persona which the public played along with and/or respected. Jimmy has fame and his charity work, Shipman was an unimpeachable GP. I think even now your language betrays this cover regarding Shipman. The Wests were 'depraved' being from the underclass, but Shipman is perceived as something of an aberration or gentlemen serial killer merely putting his victims to sleep with morphine. He was a Doctor after all!

They said the same thing about Robert Oppenheimer.

@@damonthomas8955 The issue is exactly that they don't say the same things about Robert Oppenheimer... That is- his cause was justified, while the UNAbomber's wasn't. If you ask me tho, neither are justified...

@suny123boy1 legality is just something written on a piece of paper, it's not an absolute, something can be legal in one place and illegal a mile away in another jurisdiction. Justification, likewise, exists purely in the mind of the beholder. Who is to say whether the use of force is more or less justified when used by an individual or an institution?

"You should read Ted Kaczynski's two books, Technological Slavery and Anti-Tech Revolution!

I read Ted Kaczynski's two books, Technological Slavery and Anti-Tech Revolution, and they were great ✍️.

Completely, psychological torture / abuse can completely destroy people, like how some torture methods cause a full psychotic break.
