# This Weeks Discussion Theme: [Uncle Ted]( https://www.supersurvey.com/results237511-852710E4-09RV0NDO)
In this weekly our discussion is on Ted Kaczynski a.k.a. Uncle Ted. For obvious reasons please keep all discussion on this topic LEGAL. Most probably know about Uncle Ted from memes like “the industrial revolution and its consequences”. Some likely know of him simply as the Unabomber who is serving 8 consecutive life sentences in the Colorado supermax prison for his crimes. Many know of his manifesto, but few seem to know much about Kaczynski’s essay “Industrial Society and Its Future” and the philosophy it expresses or the sharp critique of leftism it contains. As the political scientist James Q. Wilson puts it “The Unabomber Manifesto is a carefully reasoned, artfully written paper… If it is the work of a madman then the writings of many political philosophers - Jean Jacques Rousseau, Tom Paine, Karl Marx - are scarcely more sane.”
 
Discussion ideas:
* What is it about Ted Kaczynski philosophy that resonates with so many today?
* Do you think given social media and the internet today Ted Kaczynski could have successfully spread his message reaching a wide audience without acts of violence?
* Share a fact or interesting tidbit about Ted Kaczynski.
