>>11281269>Industrial revolution was terrible because advancements in technology continually force a leftist agenda in which they have grand power over freedoms and individualityFlawed argument. Firstly, I think Ted was an incredibly intelligent man when it came to his techniques (the fact that we're talking about him now is proof of it), but also an incredibly stupid man.
His entire philosophy revolves around how technological advancements are destructive to human freedom. This is stupid. Humans have always lived in a state of constant, continual oppression, living under constant warring governments who would tyranize and execute those with opposing beliefs. Idealizing history is a common idiotic belief that makes no sense. The only reason you know about injustices in the present and past is because you received an education, and because you have access to the wide amounts of information provided by a modern society. Ted suggests that a constantly changing technology framework is how leftists continually maintain control over the political agenda and force a narrative. He is correct, but this is no different than every other civilization in the past. Perhaps, now that we have the widespread ability ("we" being the intelligent and the curious) for acquiring information, we could change the flow of humanity. Unlikely, but still more likely than before. Writing extremist manifestos and tying this belief set to widespread violence is a way to, ironically, push the political agenda in favor of the left who are more than willing to use your actions as a way to maintain political clout.
