Andreas Breivik copied large part of it in his manifesto, but then again he is murderer too.
- sph 3y agoBoth are murderers, that doesn't mean they have the same ideas or ideals. Breivik is a right-wing fascist obsessed with racial and religious purity, Kaczynski's manifesto is critique of the Industrial Age not very distant from any 19th century anarchist essay. I'm not sure if he got more politicised in his later work, I'm only talking about that document. The point I'm trying to make is that people are more nuanced than your observation is trying to imply.
