Well Tbf he saw a road - not exactly “forced out”. His campaign of violence was over a decade long and I don’t think I’ve read anything about him starving or caving on his self-sufficiency ideals in the meantime. But maybe this is covered in the manifesto?
I’d say that if people who value a self-sufficient primitive existence decide they can’t coexist with me in my tech-enhanced world, my natural response is “suck it up”. The idea that they like something that a huge majority of people don’t so we all need to comply to make room for them feels selfish to the point of narcissism. It doesn’t help that, as you said, going this route today would necessitate a massive… let’s charitably say “intentional population decrease”.
Not sure if you're endorsing such views or not, but point well taken - I see how some would find self-sufficiency unsatisfying if they can’t escape all traces of the rest of society.
