    Crossposting this from another thread here because it's germane:

    Quote from: Surly1 on Jun 18, 2023, 08:40 AMThe link below takes the reader to Albert Bates' blog and a remarkable re-examination of the life and times of Ted Kaszynski:

    Eulogy for the Unabomber



    After a discussion into the life of John Brown and an implicit comparison ("It took more than a century for people to come around in their thinking about John Brown," Bates examines the thought and writings of a man of extraordinary genius whose sense of human dignity was profoundly altered, at age 16, by being secretly made the subject of an MKULTRA mind control experiment while a child prodigy undergrad at Harvard.

    Albert Bates:
    QuoteIt took more than a century for people to come around in their thinking about John Brown. Ted Kaczynski's commentary, the manifesto he called Industrial Society and Its Future, stands by itself as a benchmark in collapseology. The manifesto is a critique of leftism and US ad-age politics, but it is also a deep-thought exercise on why people are sheep, the mechanics of manufactured consent, who is doing the manipulation and why, ultimately, there is likely no way out of our present dilemma apart from human extinction.

    This article is long-- pack a lunch-- but it rewards the effort.

    Bates:
    QuoteWhen you see the disheveled arrest photos of Ted Kaczynski run beside the story of his suicide and the usual pablum about his bombing campaign without mention of MKULTRA, just remember, you are the cultural programming subject the Unabomber was warning about.
