Ol Teddy Boy, was right in almost all of his observations, but wrong in his conclusions. He saw the world as it is and is likely to become, but his solution was to assassinate engineers. This is stupid. The answer to a disenfranchisement is not violence. For thousands of years idiots used violence and it only ever results in more violence and more disenfranchisement. No the answer to disenfranchisement is elevated consciousness and a love for the people.

Ted never truly loved the people. He was like a false prophet screaming noise and rage into the wind. He hoped others with rage would repeat the message. This was foolish. He should have spread seeds of love and reconciliation to the people. He should have taught the people how to connect with their communities. He should not have pretended to be a lone wolf protecting humanity from change.

Instead, a true prophet defies the rage, defies wind, and spreads a better signal through the noise.

Lofty. There is no such thing as elevated consciousness. It's just the same old status seeking elitism but transferred to a playing field some people feel is more to their ability than objective achievement. Evolution, spiritual or otherwise treats the species as a whole. In that respect you were born equal to all.

As a matter of fact your ideals sound very close to Christianity with the love for all humanity deal, unlike the other two big leaguers. That comparison doesn't ever appeal to erstwhile spiritual snobs.

Maybe, but in the end the only thing all humans have, all they have ever had, all they will ever truly have is hope and a work towards their hopes. I choose to hope an elevated consciousness is possible. I will not hide from change. I choose to embrace the change that Ted so feared. I will use the technology as a tool of my hope.

This was a brilliant mind that our government twisted and destroyed for its own sick purposes. Say what you want about his methods, for they were truly insane, but we created the Unabomber. The deep state broke him in an effort to make him their puppet. We probably never would have even heard of this guy if he had been sending his bombs to people on an approved list.

Just a reminder: he considered himself a "leftist," whatever he meant by that, at least as evidenced in his manifesto (e.g., "fellow leftists").

He also wrote of the "FC"(freedom club) implying there was a group instead of just an individual. He could have lied about being a leftist as well.

He may have been capable of it, but the document and his history suggest he was being honest.

Words like “self-confidence,” “self-reliance,” “initiative,” “enterprise,” “optimism,” etc., play little role in the liberal and leftist vocabulary. The leftist is anti-individualistic, pro-collectivist. He wants society to solve everyone’s problems for them, satisfy everyone’s needs for them, take care of them. He is not the sort of person who has an inner sense of confidence in his ability to solve his own problems and satisfy his own needs. The leftist is antagonistic to the concept of competition because, deep inside, he feels like a loser.

I don't see the issue with this point. My problems weren't caused by me. They were caused by the world and it's poor organization. I just happened to get born into it on one of the lowest rungs. That means that I'm going to have to struggle and work harder and suffer more than millions of people born into more affluent families.

I will be goddamned and go straight to hell before I just accept that. You fuckers can all eat shit.

Oh look, another liberal who refuses to take personal responsibility for his decisions in life.

Lol yeah. Whoops my bad choosing a poor family to be born into. Whoops my bad for choosing to be born in a time when females can kick men to the curb and run off with their children to become crack addicts and alcoholics.

I'll try harder next time fucktard.

Man that moment when liberals are oppressing the niggers more than I am with my blatant racism. Am I supposed to try to uplift the Negroes now? White man's burden?
