Why are you still reading the Unabomber meme? You know he got all his ideas from Ellul, the only reason Ted is popular is because his manifesto is a meme for right wingers who got bored. Half of Ted's writing is just complaining about leftists. Take the Ellul pill and start having real opinions about technology other than 'it's bad'

don't mix Uncle Ted with Ellul you piece of shit, Ellul doesn't deserve it,

Kaczynski writes more clearly and logically. He’s done a service in efficiently distributing these ideas. If Kaczynski didn’t write his works, would we even be talking about Ellul?

Maybe you wouldn't, but I found out about Ellul due to his Theological works.

Ellul is extremely clear though (in French).

Quite patrician. Personally, I first read his legal history textbooks.

This is utter nonsense. Kaczynski goes far far beyond Ellul in his systematic analysis of technological society and in the dynamics of revolution. "Anti-Tech Revolution" is probably the most important social science book ever written: It establishes an entirely new and well supported social grand-theory.

Kacaynski is also a far more cogent, logically precise, and scientific thinker. Kaczynski writes more directly and is far easier to read.

The only reason people say that Ellul is better is cuz they haven't read all of Kaczynski's work, they are timid normies who are disturbed by the idea that the best anti-tech thinker also killed people, and they are conformists who don't want to rock to boat too much when discussing anti-tech. pathetic.

This isn't true. More like 1/5 of his manifesto at best, plus he specified that he wasn't criticizing all leftists, only SJWs, which there was no term for that in that time. You sound like a salty Tumblr neo-marxist, identity politicking tranny. You're just as bad as the /pol/tards who worship him for owning libs epic style, when those /pol/tards skipped the part where Ted dissed conservatives as well.
