It's worth noting Kaczynski was the subject of a brutal psychological experiment while a young student at Harvard. It's unfortunate in the present day that so many naive tech individuals don't understand that they've been deliberately recruited by the left in universities worldwide via indoctrination one class at a time.

Can you elaborate what you mean by that? I find the notion ridiculous, but I’d like more detail before I write it off.


Universities, especially the more prestigious ones, have been trending towards aggressively simplistic labeling of complex social issues. While their stated goal is to protect minorities, the oversimplification increases polarization and division. These doctrines in fact harm the minorities that they were intended to help, by forcing people to choose a side. Plus, they focus too much on the negatives, when we need more positive, meaningful, constructive discourse.


You specifically said “one class at a time” what did you mean?

> trending towards aggressively simplistic labeling of complex social issues

I think that’s the opposite of true.
