So if you read into Kaczynski a bit, in a way he's kinda history's first incel too. He went off into the woods because he was upset about getting rejected by a girl and went super nice guy™ on not just her but life too. He blamed technology on his inability to read into a woman and he was too insecure to learn from it.

This guy is doing something else, he attacked the elite not because of technology and their relationship but because of their wealth and direct actions.

history’s first incel

What definition of incel are you using that eliminates the rest of history?

He is ID'd the sources of issue more precisely.

Internet liberated the flow info enough for a smart person to connect the dots better.

Uncle Ted was working within the framework of the old world. A lot of shit that is common knowledge to a wage slave now, was reserved to the elites.

Ted's thesis was not wrong but it was very crude.
