Ted may have been nuts, but he was an incredibly intelligent man. For someone who seemed to have such a tight grasp of how the world works, I still can't figure out how he thought his little campaign would make any difference. He could have had far more success as a philosopher than a murderer.

i think if the internet today existed back then, he would be a lot more popular and powerful.

We re still talked by about his writings. I'd say he was successful

He really could have. I find it amazing how well he managed to quickly describe the psychology of leftists.
At the same time, he had a well-documented involvement with the MK Ultra program which I'm sure was unhealthy.
It's pretty unfortunate. He would've been a huge figurehead in the current anti-PC war.

He had good ideas but the actions done by him (or his alleged group) were horrible. I feel more people would have been able to relate to his ideas if it wasn't brought forward by a terrorist. Maybe though you wouldn't have heard of him if he didn't kill.

Paragraph 96:
If he hadn't killed people we wouldn't be talking about him right now.
