Alternative hypothesis
What if Theodore Kaczynski was used by the CIA to make the generally intelligent people subservient to those that have no issue using technology for their own goals?
CIA is known to have double entendre goals and means to achieve those goals. They fund whatever actor or group will get them to achieve their end goal, no matter the chaos and carnage it will happen along the way. I have read the manifesto and for all that it is worth there is a glaring flaw, technology isn't a source of evil but a means to an end, its a force multiplier if anything and it can be used to bring humans together and make us better. In fact, for most of its creation (before the industrial revolution technology in fact) it was used exactly for that. The real reason why industrial revolution is at issue is because capitalistic hyper-individualism is at contention, something that goes directly to opposition of our human nature which is tribalistic populistic ethnocentric socialism. In my honest opinion I believe that technology has become so advanced that it gives power to the individual immeasurably, which could go against the individualistic mindset if the person is inclined to restructure the use and application of technology. And who would be people that do this? Academics of course, people who are most socially inclined and desire towards socialism. And who were the main targets of Ted? The academics. Not the industry, not the tycoons, not even the tech people in the field, but academics who would want to better the whole of humanity through research. In one example, Nikola Tesla wanted to give the world free electricity though the Wardenclyffe Tower and the J. P. Morgan was suckered in to funding it. See, Ted never cared about solving the "issue of technology", he just wanted it to stay in the hands of narcissistic psychopaths that run the show. And if anyone got privy enough to put technology and power of it in hands of the people then they should be taught that technology le bad.
