re: Was Ted Kaczynski right?

He was right, but he was very wrong in how he conveyed his message and tried to effect change.

Yes, of course. I do wonder how much the psychological experimentation at Harvard effected his sociopathy.

If you look at the way they experimented on him, it’s not much different in how the media treats a portion of the American people right now. If you have a certain ideology, you’re a moron. If you believe things in front of your eyes, you’re crazy. If you’ve reached certain rational conclusions about society, you’ve lost it, are a bigot, a conspiracist, etc. His professor essentially berated him with that for 3 years in these sessions in order to break him. It was abusive.

His brother indicated that he was completely different after college. He became extremely cynical, conspiracy-minded and wanted to get off the grid.

I remember a chilling quote from the Unabomber documentary by his brother. “Sometimes it’s better to be broken.”

There’s apparently evidence the CIA was involved in this experimentation.
