He explains why he does it in the manifesto. I don't really agree with what he did but it's only 30 pages and you can mostly speedread the rants against leftists.

The word "leftist" is used 131 times in the manifesto. "Leftism" is used 55 times.

I haven't read his manifesto but I don't think it's a stretch to justify as "using the enemy's weapons against them" or some such.

This. Read his manifesto. He gives good reasons for using technology against technology, especially for propaganda reasons.

Why is that worth my time? There aren't very many of them, and they don't listen to arguments based on reason. Why do I care? I could read something relevant to my interests instead.
Besides, I've already read Debord and Bookchin, so I don't need any more help or time spent on debating anprims and neoluddites. There's no convincing these mystics for the most part, and it's not fun debating people who believe things like "language was a mistake." It feels like punching a baby that isn't capable of understanding why it's being punched.

His manifesto is just a collection of rants. He seems disconnected from reality and he is certainly guilty of misdirecting his anger. He fails to kill any one of importance and doesn't even try to dismantle the government or even give theories on how to do so. Theng guy even refers to women as wenches like some angry 18th century virgin.

>> No.12587820

>>12587782
he's disconnected from reality because CIA niggers messed with his brain. that's exactly why he doesn't offer any true alternatives to the modern government - his brain isn't capable of thinking those thoughts anymore.

it's not like his argument was that primitive weaponry is better than technological weaponry. his argument was that technological society has deprived man of his sense of purpose. using technological tools to attack technological society because they are efficient and deadly does not contradict that value judgement.
