Or maybe getting blown up did something to his brain. edit: strange, they upvote when someone says Fetterman turned repub because of stroke brain damage, but downvote when I speculate he likes trump/epstein because of bomb brain damage. What's the difference?

Kaczynski's victims were not random.

This guy's associations with epstein and tump came years after the bombing.

This guy and Luigi are nothing alike. I like Luigi. I saw him in a pizza shop in Lubbock the day that CEO was killed.

He targeted logging ceo's.

Right, but he was doing shitty things prior to being targeted. He was targeted because of his behavior.

One of the other victims was Dr Charles Epstein, I've wondered for a while if he was some kind of relation.

Off-topic but related: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Epstein (born 1915)

They just hate America

Considering where the US is headed at the moment ..what's not to hate?

There are a lot of good people in the US, no doubt, but, well, it seems like that doesn't matter much anymore.

The more I learn about his victims, the more I sympathize with Ted Kaczynski. Terrorist, sure. He just happened to have a valid point

shrug, i think he was right

Not really, read up on Kaczinsky's motivations, see his manifesto. He was targeting symbols of the new techno-industrial system, what they did in their jobs, not based on their personal lives.

Yeah but it's not. I only see the polls where most Israelis don't support Netanyahu because they WANT MORE. I don't think Jews are a problem or the problem here, I do think Israel as a state is such a problems that it has corrupted most of its citizens, which unfortunately mostly are Jews.

you're forgetting that there are plenty of non-israeli jews..
