Well I didn't need Ted to figure that out. How does the rest hold up?
It's been 30 years and people are still talking about it. He'd probably consider that a win.
He predicted that technological advances would lead to extensive and ultimately oppressive forms of human control, including genetic engineering, and that human beings would be adjusted to meet the needs of social systems rather than vice versa.
Kaczynski stated that technological progress can be stopped, in contrast to the viewpoint of people who he said understand technology's negative effects yet passively accept technology as inevitable. He called for a revolution to force the collapse of the worldwide technological system, and held a life close to nature, in particular primitivist lifestyles, as an ultimate ideal.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Kaczynski
He hated leftist views, he hated fascism. He seemed to advocate a technological level somewhere between Native American and Amish. Call him an isolationist libertarian, I suppose. His solution to the problem is like something out of Fight Club - a one man "Project Mayhem."
tl;dr: His methodology was pointlessly cruel and ineffective. But his assessment of the human condition wasn't too far off the mark.
Just gonna rip from Wikipedia
