Unabomber Praised Ecoterrorist Group Linked to Biden BLM Nominee
Breitbart ^ | 7/7/2021

Posted on 07/07/2021 10:18:27 AM PDT by simpson96

Ted Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, granted his first interview after his 1996 arrest to the former editor of Earth First!, the eponymous journal of the environmental extremist group to which President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) once belonged.

Kaczynski, after his nearly 20-year-long bombing spree that killed three people and injured 23, was sentenced to eight consecutive life terms in prison before he invited Earth First! journal editor Theresa Kintz to conduct his first media interview in 1999. Kaczynski said Kintz was the “one journalist” he would “be prepared to trust.”

“As I mentioned earlier, I’ve given no media interviews in part because mainstream journalists have shown themselves to be completely unscrupulous and untrustworthy,” Kaczynski wrote to Kintz. “But you are one journalist whom I would be prepared to trust. Would you like to interview me for the Earth First! Journal?”

The backstory of Kintz’s interview with Kaczynski, as well as audio from the interview, was highlighted in a 2020 documentary series called Unabomber: In His Own Words.

Earth First! is a self-described “radical environmental movement,” though it operates as a group with a symbol, publication, and the motto “no compromise in defense of mother earth.” The FBI linked Earth First! to domestic terrorism because its members engaged in criminal activity in the 1980s and 1990s — such as tree spiking and property destruction — that the FBI identifies as ecoterrorism.

Tracy Stone-Manning, Biden’s nominee to head the BLM, was a member of Earth First! when she was a graduate student at the University of Montana in Missoula and was involved in a criminal tree spiking case during that same timeframe, about 30 years ago.

They are just ideas. Now move along, nothing to see except for peaceful yet fiery protests.

Why not nominate Kaczynski himself?

Kaczynski’s brilliance was on par with Tesla and Einstein. He was just a genius at mathematics. I wonder what made him snap?

The Unabomber is a hero to the leftists.

Well, he is now. But when he was a teacher, the guy was a brilliant mathematician.

Kacynski did not “snap”.

He knew exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it.

He foresaw the rise of genetic engineering and the totalitarian corporate state.

His tactics didn’t make a whole lot of sense (since they were a total failure), but stupid tactics makes you a fool, not insane.

What broke him? MK Ultra lsd and horribly abusive psych experiments on a brilliant lonely kid at the university. Look it up.

Earth Firsters are also associated with Al Gore.

They have advocated the reduction of the human population from over 6 Billion to about 90 million by the end of the century.

I heard that he participated in some horrible CIA-led mind control experiments.

Talk about guilt by association. Sheesh.

It would be enough to just say that she was a member of Earth First. No need to drag the Unabomber into this.

All of us are on a bulletin board that probably had some creepy characters on it that either were kicked off or are still lurking about.

Are we all guilty because we share FR with some anonymous freaks?
