“The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race... For most people, there are exceptions; they take the path of least resistance. They'll take the easy way out, and giving up your car, your television set, your electricity, is not the path of least resistance for most people. As I see it, I don't think there is any controlled or planned way in which we can dismantle the industrial system. I think that the only way we will get rid of it is if it breaks down and collapses. The big problem is that people don't believe a revolution is possible, and it is not possible precisely because they do not believe it is possible. To a large extent I think the eco-anarchist movement is accomplishing a great deal, but I think they could do it better. The real revolutionaries should separate themselves from the reform. And I think that it would be good if a conscious effort was being made to get as many people as possible introduced to the wilderness. In a general way, I think what has to be done is not to try and convince or persuade the majority of people that we are right, as much as try to increase tensions in society to the point where things start to break down. To create a situation where people get uncomfortable enough that they’re going to rebel. So the question is how do you increase those tensions?”

-Ted Kaczynski from his anarcho-primitivist manifesto Industrial Society and Its Future

Working from his isolated cabin in the woods near Lincoln, Montana, Ted Kaczynski, AKA, the UNABOMBER, set off multiple bombs killing three and injuring eleven between May 25, 1978 and April 24, 1995.

A brilliant mathematician, Kaczynski earned a PhD with a specialty in geometric function theory. His thesis was entitled “Boundary Functions.”

Based on evidence provided by his brother David Kaczynski the FBI arrested Ted Kaczynski at his cabin on April 3, 1996. He is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole at the federal Supermax facility in Florence, Colorado.

Kaczynski’s anarcho-primitivism is a philosophy which seeks to return the modern industrialized society to primitive hunter-gatherer subsistence by conscious deconstruction and managed decline of civilization with the abandonment of technology.
