    Holy Shit… This kind of shit is what ultimately broke Tim(very closely ralated to ted) kaczynski… He was part of MKULTRA research while a student at Harvard, but instead of drugging him, they had a debater that was a prosecutor pretending to be a student… And would just argue against any point he had to see when he would break…

    And that’s how you get the Unabomber folks.

      I don’t condone what he did in any way, but he was a genius, and they broke his mind.

      Listen to The Last Podcast on the Left’s episode on him.

      A genuine tragedy.

        You know when I was like 17 and they put out the manifesto to get him to stop attacking and I remember thinking oh it’s got a few interesting points.

        But I was 17 and not that he doesn’t hit the nail on the head with some of the technological stuff if you really step back and think about it and this is what I couldn’t see at 17 it’s really just the writing of an incell… He couldn’t communicate with women had low self-esteem and classic nice guy energy…
