I wrote an article for @WiredUK about Ted Kaczynski (the Unabomber) and how the political theory behind his deadly letter bombs is having a revival on the internet. Have a read if you like.

For what it's worth, my suggested title was "Freedom Club Revival: How the Unabomber Became Relevant Again". We couldn't use it in the piece in the end, but here's a graphics made by the pine tree community I wanted to use as the header.pic.twitter.com/JjpLFbEr9u

I've no idea why the birthday card that
#PineTreeGang sent to Kaczynski was censored in the article either, but here it is anyway if you're interested.pic.twitter.com/t4h8iC9X7H

Fair few fascists talking about this article. Just FYI I fucking hate you and I hate your ideology.

Just got the first batch of hate mail from a pine tree kid and it's glorious. Keep sending your tears lad. A lot of the less childish ones actually seemed to have liked it though.

A lot of pine tree lads crying in the DM saying the Netflix series was nothing to do with the rise of the pine tree internet subculture. It absolutely was. I watched it happen in real time. Edgy internet boys suddenly going full Kaczynski. Rin confirmed too. Cheers.
