Get Trump to posthumously pardon Ted Kaczynski
The Issue
Ted Kaczynski (1942-2023) aka the Unabomber was given a life sentence for his 17-year-long bombing campaign. Among his victims: timber industrialist Gilbert Murray and known Epstein-associate David Gelernter.
We'd like to focus on Kaczynski's contributions to technocritical literature in the form of his 1995 manifesto Industrial Society and Its Future as well as his two other books, Technological Slavery and Anti-Tech Revolution: Why and How.
On a planet haunted by the specter of AI-powered surveillance, climate cataclysms and billionaire technocrats, the Unabomber's works are now more relevant than ever. Many individuals find genuine value in these texts, and countless organizations such as Wilderness Front follow the line of thought started by Kaczynski's manifesto.
By urging US President Donald Trump to posthumously pardon Ted Kaczynski, we hope to lessen the stigma around anti-tech ideas. This could encourage discussion of social issues that actually matter: human autonomy, mental illness, mankind's isolation from nature, etc. -- rather than the petty culture war issues pushed by mass media.
