Theodore “Ted" Kaczynski, known as the “Unabomber,” has died in federal prison, a spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons told The Associated Press on Saturday.

Kaczynski was found dead around 8 a.m. at a federal prison in North Carolina. A cause of death was not immediately known.

He had been moved to the federal prison medical facility in North Carolina after spending two decades in a federal Supermax prison in Colorado for a series of bombings that targeted scientists.

Kaczynski was serving life without the possibility of parole following his 1996 arrest at the primitive cabin where he was living in western Montana. He pleaded guilty to setting 16 explosions that killed three people and injured 23 others in various parts of the country between 1978 and 1995.

So, the unabomber will be front page news for a while. It will give the media an excuse to blame "white supremacy for his crimes as they look for ways to connect him to President Trump.

RE: A cause of death was not immediately known.

A lot of that is going around.

Maybe he was going to dress up in a suit and tie for a meeting about legal matters about his case. As he was tightening his tie he noticed too late it was a rope and someone was helping him tie it tighter. Much tighter.

Yet Jonathan Pollard is still alive. Maybe we should get him back and throw him in Kaczynski’s now vacant cell.

The nabomber actually worked at Berkley.

There was a parlor game back in the 90's, is the quote from the unabomber or Al Gore.

Damn. Feel bad for his brother who turned him in. It was the right decision, but Ted never spoke to him after that despite his brother trying for years to make contact. And now he is gone. Got to be hard.

As for Ted himself, MK Ultra victim turned murderer. Hard to feel much sympathy given his actions, but it’s true he wasn’t all there mentally. Left wing and nuts, but some of his criticisms in his manifesto of liberals were spot on. Have to admit that.

Hahaha

They get to pick what they talk about, how they spin it, and when they air it.

Since most the media conglomerates are owned by Democrats, and most journalists are liberal, you have a powerful pro-liberal bias.

The professional standards which once demanded a degree of objectivity are gone today. Any topic, it almost doesn’t matter what, the journalist today sees himself as a socially responsible party to, needing to influence people one way or the other: J6 and the elections, Covid, Ukraine, climate change, LGBTQ, the gun debate, etc.

Language often gives us away. A long time ago folks in the news media would refer to themselves as “reporters.” Today they call themselves “journalists.” There is a difference.

The second big 1990s headliner criminal, after Robert Hansen, the spy, to die in prison this week.

Remember how well the media put his environmental manifesto in front of the public, it was placed front and center nationally.

I would compare him to John Brown. Brown's criticisms of slavery were spot on, his methods, not so much.

As AI develops and we all become more beholden to some arbitrary algorithms, Kaczinski's warnings will likely be viewed in a vastly different light by those still allowed to think for themselves.

Kaczynski was an Eco Terrorist, a Luddite, an Earthy-Crunchy. He had nothing to do with racial politics.

They are clearing out the prisons to make room for all the conservatives they plan to imprison.
