Intelligent people usually have more empathy than average or stupid people. Ted chose to empathize with nature rather than with humanity.

[Anonymous No.14788536]

No you idiot he emphasized with humanity too. Humanity depends on nature both for freedom and survival in the long term. The whole point of an anti-tech revolution is to save both.

Definitely not, malice definitely trends more with stupid people and intelligent people overwhelmingly tend to be well meaning. What you mean is that you have a bad nature and want to justify it by your self perceived intelligence, just as people of self perceived intelligence want to justify everything by that intelligence.
"I'm cynical because I'm intelligent, I'm depressed because I'm intelligent, I'm unsocial because I'm intelligent, I'm alone because I'm intelligent." No, you're not intelligent, you probably just spend a lot of time with "intellectual" because you don't have anything else to you. Hume, Kant, William James, the list goes on, these people are almost always well mannered, well meaning, and well liked. No sadism. You find weird natures like that in people with more lopsided psychologies, semi-dysfunctional crazy folks who get to specialize in some faculty - again - at the expense of others. That psychological imbalance gets expressed in tendencies such as sadism. Actual intelligence is a different matter - if you're only successful in a narrow set or activities and dysfunctional elsewhere, you're not intelligent, you're an idiot savant at best.

They are in fact being controlled by technology since being elite in 2020 means making use of technological tools. There is no other way. Since there is no possibility of ruling without technology then the elites are in fact serving Tech, which is ruling the elite. "Ruling" is a technique in and of itself, governments are technological apparatuses. Cut the power and it becomes clear; governments cease to function, we go back to pre-industrial forms of governance. And this is not even touching the subject of specialization and how politicians are by definition clueless on technology, they only apply what scientists tell them is possible. So the actual non-ideological hierarchy as of today is Technology > Tech workers > Politicians > rest of us. Each of these actors are subdued by the preceding actor. You could always retreat yourself in ideology and other idealism to paint a prettier picture of what you think society ought to operate but then you are intellectually worthless.

Basically this is cope of the highest order, you are completely subdued by tech so you find a psychological way out; a coping mechanism.

The premise of this post is retarded. Kaczynski is not “sadistic.” He committed tactical violence in pursuit of a rational ideology against people who are enemies of wild nature and humanity. So he’s a freedom fighter. Only people who’ve been brainwashed by industrial civilization and therefore see the ideology as an enemy and the targets as “innocent” characterize the violence as “sadistic.”

Why do you put quotes around innocent? I do not know much about the people he targeted, but weren't they just professors?

[Anonymous No.14792037]

Not intelligent people, per se, but people who are honest. Human beings are predatory animals. Violence and aggression are in our blood, and the narrative that human beings are good and rational beings at heart is for domesticated bugmen hiding from their own nature.

You’re still begging the question! All you’ve done is replace “innocent” with “just professors” which are equivalent in your mind.

Kaczynski didn’t target ANY professors, he targeted SPECIFIC professors engaged in technological research, as well as specific individuals promoting industry or tech.
