ANTI TECH TALK

"The technophiles are taking us all on an utterly reckless ride into the unknown" - Ted Kaczynski

"The system does not and cannot exist to satisfy human needs. Instead, it is human behavior that has to be modified to fit the needs of the system. This has nothing to do with the political or social ideology that may pretend to guide the technological system... the system is guided not by ideology but by technical necessity. Of course the system does satisfy many human needs, but generally speaking it does this only to the extent that it is to the advantage of the system to do it. It is the needs of the system that are paramount, not those of the human being." 📕Theodore J. Kaczynski, Industrial Society and Its Future Systemic figures and their political formations will never save us. AntiTechRevolt❤️

A determining factor in the kind of ideology a person adopts is the psychology that a person is predisposed to. Leftists, for example, need to be part of large groups to feel the power that they can't feel individually. A Leftist's inferiority feelings and oversocialization predispose him towards collectivistic ideologies that use the power of society to compensate for individual weakness. In a similar way, Anti-tech ideas attract individuals who are in many ways disgusted by modern society; be it through the destruction of the wilderness, expansion of human species and overpopulation, widespread cultural degeneracy, or a simple hatred for technology, our psychology can and will determine our ideals and aspirations. If we understand how our psychological makeup and assumptions about reality affect the way we process the world, we will see when and how to give other people the necessary "push" in the right direction instead of blindly advocating into the darkness, hoping for an answer.

Build your network. Stockpile your supplies. We are already beginning to see the metamorphosis

Begin researching effective weak points. The grid Supply critical chemical precursors Weak link in manufacturing In the 2030s supply chains will begin to become stressed. In the 2040s supply chains will become critically stretched. During this period as the System is beginning to react to shortages in zinc, copper, rare earth's, gallium, antimony, and the slow decline in clean crude oil: the System will be at its most vulnerable. If we let the system survive the shift away from hydrocarbon dependency, it will exist forever. This will be the one chance the Revolutionaries have, so begin preparing.

— Bertrand Russell in The Prospects of Industrial Civilization

Letter from Ted Kaczysnki to his brother David Kaczysnki after he ratted him out. AntiTechRevolt

In case u didnt see it yet

"We're going to consume until we burn everything, we just find a new thing to consume every now and then. If solar panels can replace all our energy needs, we'll invent some new stupid fuck thing to use more energy and clean entire rain forests for more solar panels.Your blood will be filled with graphene fragments and dead nanobots polluting the air and water. They'll make good friends with the microplastics. -A 4chan Anon The consumerist desires of modern man will never be satisfied. This hunger for material possessions and convenience comes at a great cost to our freedom and the natural world. A lasting compromise can never be made. AntiTechRevolt

Visualise the post industrial world

"As technology progresses and globalization grows more pervasive, the world-system becomes ever more complex and more tightly coupled, so that a catastrophic breakdown has to be expected sooner or later." — Theodore John Kaczynski (ATR: Why and How?)

"Manifesto. Read my Manifesto. I've written a Manifesto. It's all in the Manifesto!" — Theodore John Kaczynski

"The destruction of the technoindustrial system by a movement contrary to it could, and most likely would, bring a great amount of pain, suffering, and death to a great number people on the Earth, so the adoption of anthropocentric or humanistic values –or of anthropocentric or humanistic people within its ranks- would hinder the effectiveness of such movement, is in itself a very important practical reason to reject humanism and humanists from such a movement. Always distrust those who don’t actually value wild Nature over all, because they will end up betraying the cause against technoindustrial system as soon as it collides with their real main values and motivations. In the case of humanists, with the welfare or survival of (a great part of) humanity, for example" - Ultimo Reducto

"We will argue that if the development of the technological world-system is allowed to proceed to its logical conclusion, then in all probability the Earth will be left a dead planet – a planet on which nothing will remain alive except, maybe, some of the simplest organisms – certain bacteria, algae, etc. – that are capable of surviving under extreme conditions." — Theodore John Kaczynski (ATR: Why and How?) Anti-Tech Apostles

RUNNING OUT OF TIME Technological progress is accelerating at an exponential, rapid pace, but likewise are the inner contradictions within the technological-system. Progress creates more problems than it solves. Natural resource depletion, climate change, world war, ecosystem collapse, and the list goes on, are the inevitable result of progress. The system will eventually hit crisis. We must act decisively to dismantle the technological-system when the right opportunities arise. Join the fight against the global techno-industrial system: Anti-Tech Apostles

This is all just another example of the technological-system only being obedient to technical necessity, not human values or will. Technologies such as surveillance cameras and dossiers of information about the lives of average citizens is a technical necessity because it provides the system with the means to modify and monitor your behavior on a mass scale to ensure it fits the needs of the technological network. In other words, the technological-system reduces you to a mere cog in the machine, and the mass surveillence is designed to keep you as one. Anti-Tech Apostles

In a hopelessly on-brand twist for the technological system, the FCC has approved the first launch of Ben Nowack's 'Reflect Orbital' project. A project which aims to launch 50,000 satellites into low earth orbit by 2035, where they would be clearly visible from the surface; choking the sky in a sea of light pollution unlike anything that exists today. That's right, it's time to say goodbye to the night sky! The purpose of these satellites is to reflect sunlight onto the dark side of the planet to assist in "agriculture, emergency efforts, and extending working hours" for only $5,000 an hour. Admin is sure Reflect receiving a $1.25 million AFWERX SBIR Phase II contract with the US navy for "military installations" is a complete coincidence and not at all related. Reflect joins a growing army of satellite swarms aiming to fill the sky, including SpaceX's Starlink, AST Space Mobile's Bluewalker/Bluebird, and Qianfan's Thousand Sails. How many things will the technological system take away before we accept that it cannot continue to exist?

"Modernity proclaims rights without in any way providing the means to exercise them. It exacerbates all needs and continually creates new ones, while reserving access to them to a small minority, which feeds the frustration and anger of all others. As for the ideology of progress, which responds to human expectations by nourishing the promise of an ever-improving world, it is in a deep crisis. The future appears unpredictable, no longer offering hope, and terrifying almost everyone. Each generation confronts a world different from the one its fathers knew." ~ Alain de Benoist
