It's my personal opinion that had Ted not decided to bomb shit he would have been considered the modern Henry David Thoreau a generation later. He covers alot of the same concepts at Thoreau but from a modern perspective.
Yeah. Unfortunately his work is always going to have that stigma attached to it. Social media proved Ted right on the concept of controlling people by oversocialization and oversocializing people by incentivizing specific social interactions. In essence turning people's desire to be publicly recognized by peers into a control mechanism. I would be interested in if he's written anything while imprisoned. I think it really goes to show how much he believed in what he wrote about when he acted on it instead of publishing and capitalizing on his work.
