Agrarian society isn't natural either, ted

>implying you can’t go further back than that
The evolution of multicellular life and it’s consequences have been a disaster for life on earth

>>14494973
I bet you thought was you typed out was explosive, huh?

I guess your joke bombed, OP

You’re only getting your mind blown because no one ever bothered to open up what’s inside of it

Uncle Ted is an impolite fellow; I had a conversation with him and he kept dropping F-bombs

>>14495647
The incarnation of physical reality has been a disaster for the supreme reality.

I read it a week ago and it was much more grim than I expected

>>14496696
more like truth-bombs by calling you a faggot

>>14494973
Isn't his whole book an appeal to nature fallacy?

>>14497173
No
Also, read his essay The Truth About Primitive Life

>>14497184
Sure. So what is Kacynski's endgoal? He's not anprim and he's anti tech. So he wants something akin to 18th century life prior to the industrial revolution?

>>14497197
pretty much

>>14497197
Sort of. It is nuanced. Uncle Ted actually had no problem with cars. The problem is that society soon builds itself around mass transportation provides. It stops offering freedom when it becomes mandatory.

>>14497197
Have you read TK? He says over and over again that the outcome of the anti-tech revolution is beyond our grasp (we cannot predict the trends of society) it's not about going back to primie ways, agricultural civ, pastoral nomadism or anything of that sort. It's about DESTROYING INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY. That's it.

TK terminated idealism. There is no big utopia following the revolution, no plans whatsoever, no ideal to follow through.

>>14497222
wrong. you haven't read anything beyond his manifesto. TK does not CARE about the outcome of the anti-tech revolution >>14497645.

TK solved political philosophy. He terminated Idealism. TK re-ontologizes the subject. And most of all, he pleb-filtered everyone by not name dropping a single thinker in his works, and by decomplexifying everything he wrote about. He solved the false theory/praxis dichotomy. He buried Debord and his clique (they're not interested in actual détournement). He dismantled Marxism and materialism (Marxist teleology invalidates Marx anti-idealist stance) etc... I could go on and on, TK is the most important voice of our times.

>>14497645
>Have you read TK?

It's on my reading list. I read his Wiki page and learned about him through threads so I got the common misconception he was just for a return to hunter gatherer days because of his lifestyle living in a cabin.

>>14494973
How many people here are on their iPhone/Android smartphones while typing out their interest in Uncle Ted?

>>14497822
Can we kill this argument already

>>14495515
based and true, though I think Ted agreed. Everything went to shit after agrarian revolution.

Why?

>>14494973
good.

>>14497674
this this this. nice to see another bright person get it.

>>14497674
true, but of course, most people will think what you wrote is nonsense and say you're just another nut.

>>14497822
As opposed to? Are you sending smoke signals to 4channel?

I was like this before reading him
Sadly his book is trash, awful prose. Read Linkola instead

>>14498863
Linkola is genre-fiction - it happens that he's good for his niche, but there is no substance, no thinking, no depth to be found in his works. It is exactly what TK decries in various 'activists' and academics; that people claim to be against the system but do not give themselves the tools to act against it. If you are SERIOUS about destroying industrial society then you work towards that goal like an autist, not like some nord poet more preoccupied with writing his latest sonet than saving the world. The state of idealists. How do you expect your fantasies to act out? By the way, a government is first and foremost a technological apparatus, therefore any kind of eco-fascism is fundamentally flawed, but once again, people are more concerned with palliating their own psychological needs than armed and able to focus on the real problems at hand - no bird collecting fantasy.

>>14497674
>TK re-ontologizes the subject
What do you mean and how does he do this?

>>14498963
This. And true.

>>14497674
I’m not even particularly anti-tech, but I will acknowledge that he makes midwits seethe and that ISAIF was brilliant. As was his letter to his brother.

>>14498963
Based, I am pretty sick of Linkola and Eco-Fascists too

>>14495515
>living off the land isnt natural
????
Also ted was far more anti-tech than he was pro-agrarian
