I don’t really understand why the unibomber manifesto was ever published by the media, but it is a revealing must read.
I like to think that they brought in the unibomber and gave him some paper like “see if you can come up with some other solution that doesn’t involve reverting to pre industrial revolution civilization”. And he came up with this timeline.
He was like “hear me out - there is one other way- it involves Donald trump and a shitload of frogs.”
