This must be the dumbest motherfucker to have ever existed, I can't believe people consider them to be a genius in anything other than gaslighting and projection. Almost every single line could be ranked among the most absurd takes I have ever read. I did not know that it was possible to experience such intense feelings of cringe outside of Twitter. The industrial revolution and its consequences indeed.

For years, Ted was nothing more than an upright citizens brigade punchline to me. Then I got a targeted AD for an AI girlfriend and my brain said "You know what, you never ACTUALLY read the unibomber's manifesto"

So as a reaction to that ad, I did. It's maybe the most developmentally stunted thing I've ever read but it's eery how I've heard so many dudes spout nonsense like this.

We're all vulnerable to this kind of poison.
