He also bombed a Campus police officer, multiple planes, two store owners, etc.
There isn’t praiseworthy fiber in this man, he needed help and pity.
W for Uncle Ted

Can you blame a guy for spiraling after being MK Ultra’ed?
FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 8 hours ago
I couldn’t praise him, no.
ImWaitingForRetcons@lemmy.world 1 day ago
It’s less about showing him to be even vaguely moral, and proving that the US government is supremely corrupt and immoral.

The meme, maybe, but the fucking post title says “W for Uncle Ted”
Dasus@lemmy.world 14 hours ago
Well despite it, I think his bombings still kinda pale in comparison to the ones US pulls.
mike_hunt@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
Well, has anyone tried looking these people up in the Epstein files yet?
FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 1 day ago
That’s why we’re here, a dude who got bombed in 1995 turned up in the files a bunch of years later.

Its still a valid conversation

Presumably a reference to David Gelernter for anyone else wondering.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 day ago
In one 2011 email, Gelernter recommended an undergraduate student to Epstein for an editorial position in part because she was a “v[ery] small goodlooking blonde”.
Fucking psychopath. Not sorry Ted blew off his jerk-off hand.

telling colleagues that he was “very glad [he] wrote the note” and that Epstein "…was obsessed with girls (like every other unmarried billionaire in Manhattan; in fact, like every other heterosex[ual] male), and if I hadn’t said what I did in that letter ten-odd years ago, he would certainly have called me & asked for a lot more aesthetic detail. (This is how men behave.)
His response to the backlash is insane.
Fmstrat@lemmy.world 1 day ago
For those who go down the rabbit hole:
- Wikipedia still lists him as employed at Yale
- Yale’s faculty page still has him listed
- He was very recently relieved from teaching duties while Yale reviews the emails that happened after Epstein’s conviction
- He rates last out of 82 computer science professors at Yale

I’m wondering why he had a job to begin with. Being against women in the workforce should preclude you from being allowed to teach women who might enter the workforce.
With professors like that, it’s no wonder that there’s a dearth of women in CS.
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 15 hours ago
I was wondering why his face looked familiar. He was featured on Big Thinkers.
I’ll rewatch it later, but the only thing I remember about him was that he learned how to use his other hand as his primary after the mail bomb blew up his dominate one. Probably the only reason he had an episode at all was the bombing.

What a disgusting man
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 day ago
In another post, I mentioned that he may have been correct all along, and the people he targeted had it coming, except for the innocent ones. Ted was a bit sloppy on that regard.
I got savagely downvoted.
Redjard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
The people were guilty except for the innocent ones?
PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 1 day ago
“I aced that test! As long you don’t count the answers I got wrong…”
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 day ago
Yep, pretty much. Seems like unassailable logic to me.
Donkter@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I think they mean the targets were guilty but the post office workers and secretaries that got bombed were still innocent.
edm@thelemmy.club 1 day ago
Not that different from all the innocents the US gov has murdered. We literally just watched ICE gun down two citizens in Minnesota and per usual nothing will happen or change.
aaa999@lemmy.world 1 day ago
This is typical of far right dipshits though. 1. vaguely identify an actual observable problem that any fuckup can see 2. be wrong about a bunch of stuff 3. murder
ReverendIrreverence@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Uncle Ted was the polar opposite of a “far right dipshit” though unless I am missing something
paranoia@feddit.dk 1 day ago
Correct all along, aside from suggesting that we need to essentially genocide each other until all states collapse and the population is a small fraction of what it is today.
Passerby6497@lemmy.world 1 day ago
What proof is there that Ted Kaczynski actually got anyone in the Epstein files?
Redjard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
One case mentioned further up is David Gelernter, who survived with permanent injuries and shows up in the Epstein files to the point of it now ending his career.
This is however well after the attacks, the Unabomber predates the timespan we have significant information about. Given the wiki entry of that David Gelernter, I wouldn’t be surprised if he shows up in some analog Epstein documents we don’t yet know about.
I checked another random victim and found no info at all at a glance though, so I’m not convinced on the unabomber picking targets based on this, which seems like what some others here are claiming. Could just be a by-chance hit. If you bomb people you dislike I suppose you’ll have an increased chance of targetting pedos by intuition.
Passerby6497@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Interesting. I can’t say I’m surprised he got someone who appeared on the list, but it just being by chance tracks
YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 1 day ago
Dude was ahead of the curve. I ain’t his praises here at least once a week.
gnutrino@programming.dev 1 day ago
On the subject of Ted Kaczynski and people in the Epstein files, I get an opportunity to revive this old limerick:
Lewinsky and Clinton have shown,
what Kaczynski must surely have known:
That an intern is better
than a bomb in a letter
of the possible ways to be blown.
