\chapter{About this project}


This is a newly released huge archive on Ted Kaczynski.


The website works just like wikipedia, where anyone can submit new texts to the website and new edits of texts currently on the website.


We, everyone who has contributed, have archived:


\begin{itemize}
\item\relax 
A ton of primary source documents on Ted's life and ideas.



\item\relax 
Documents analyzing the effect he had on the public's understanding of radical environmentalists, anarchists, terrorists, criminals, the mentally ill \& simple mental neurodivergence.



\item\relax 
Lots of great suggested reading on anarchism \& other issues.




\end{itemize}

We, the librarians who bought the website domain, are pro-tech anarchists, but we just find his life story and impact really interesting.


So, we’re hoping the website can work to draw people in with similar politics to him and similar mental health issues frankly. Then for the cold hard reality of the primary source reading material, the epic-ness of the suggested reading material and the inviting discussion spaces connected to the website, to all have a deprogramming effect and be a mental health support.


For example, a popular text on the website for a while was simply a book on how to \href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/faith-g-harper-unfuck-your-friendships}{Unfuck Your Friendships} and the discord has already played host to a discussion between people encouraging each other to think rationally about their depression diagnosis.


Which texts go up on the website is decided by a small collective of librarians, but all decisions will be put to a debate that anyone can join, in the live chat discussion spaces linked below.



\bigskip

\section{Discussion Spaces}


On the \href{https://discord.gg/eYve84h7mj}{discord} and \href{https://matrix.to/\#/\#the-ted-k-archive:matrix}{matrix} live chat spaces you’ll get:


\begin{itemize}
\item\relax 
Updates on when new texts go live.



\item\relax 
Help with how to request rare documents from university archives.



\item\relax 
The chance to co-ordinate with others on copy typing up handwritten documents onto the website.



\item\relax 
The option to debate what new texts go up on the website.




\end{itemize}


\bigskip

\section{Ethical steps taken by this project}


\begin{itemize}
\item\relax 
We have a list of essays critiquing Ted’s politics \& philosophy on the front page of the website.



\item\relax 
There are long critiques and disclaimers added to some texts and we aim to add more.



\item\relax 
When collecting together research on misanthropic groups and projects, we simply title the text ‘a text dump on \_\_\_\_\_\_’. That way for example we don’t dignify fictional stories terror groups weave when they write their own press releases and title them as communiqués.



\item\relax 
Anyone can join the debate over which texts should go up on the website, obviously if you join just to troll or spam though, you will be removed.



\item\relax 
\href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/special/rejected-texts}{A record will be kept} of all texts that were rejected, whether for minor formatting reasons or deeply held political reasons.



\item\relax 
A record will also be kept of controversial texts that were approved, where for example there was a sizable disagreement.



\item\relax 
Ideally, in the future we will have popular sorting mechanisms directly under the main search box, such as a check box for 'only anarchist texts' that would exclude texts labelled 'not anarchist'.




\end{itemize}


\bigskip

\section{Frequently asked questions}

\subsection{\textbf{Why idolize Ted by naming the website after him?}}


People who are curious about his life and impact are just the main audience we hope to draw in with this website.


Since we think he's going to be remembered as a true crime curiosity anyways, we might as well capitalize on that and use it as a space to promote critiques of people with similar politics to him and help with similar mental health issues to him.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Was Ted K ever an anarchist?}}


He definitely identified as an anarchist in the 1990s at least. His first letter to the media, in June 1993, began with the words: "We are an anarchist group calling ourselves FC." A later communiqué from April 1995 repeated: "We call ourselves anarchists." The Manifesto discusses "our particular brand of anarchism".


Also, for many years after his arrest his message remained fairly consistent: "the social ideal I would put forward is that of the nomadic hunting-and-gathering society." Plus, that: "after the techno-industrial system has been eliminated, people can and should fight injustice wherever they find it."



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Does Ted K have any relevance to anarchism?}}


I think Wayne Price said it best when he answered this question in the following way:



\begin{quote}


First, I answer “No.” His views have nothing in common with my views on anarchism. And even the most misguided anarchist bomb-throwers and assassins of the past would not have killed professors and students.


But I also say “Maybe.” His views are similar to those of many anarchists: the lack of interest in developing a strategy for popular revolution; the belief that the enemy is industrial technology; not building an organization; not participating in popular struggles, but acting as an elite above the people; the worship of violence, abstracted from popular struggle; a willingness to impose their views on the people, even while denouncing as vanguardist those who try to persuade people. Perhaps I could add: an ambiguity about democracy, seeing anarchism as for freedom versus democracy, rather than as the most extreme form of democracy. All these concepts are reflected in the Unabomber’s letters and actions and are also held by various trends within the anti-authoritarian movements. No doubt the Unabomber will be used as an excuse for denouncing anarchism. The movement would be wise to prepare by having open discussion about him and his methods.



\end{quote}


For further reading on this subject \href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/does-the-unabomber-have-any-relevance-to-anarchism}{click here}.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{How easy was the website to set up?}}


We just bought the domain then asked the good folks at \href{https://anarchistlibraries.net/}{Anarchist Libraries.net} to set up the \href{https://amusewiki.org/special/index}{Amuse Wiki} software. They did it all for us for free, had it running virtually right away and have helped answer any questions.


If you're curious to live chat to them, there's a channel on the \href{https://hexchat.github.io/}{Hexchat} program under Libera.Chat channels \#amusewiki and \#anarchistlibrary.


If you'd like to set up your own anarchist library you can attempt to follow the steps \href{https://anarchistlibraries.net/howto}{described here} and\Slash{}or email \emph{anarchistlibraries-request@inventati.org}.

\chapter{Rejected and Controversially Accepted Texts}

\section{Rejected Texts}


No rejected texts yet!



\bigskip

\section{Censored Texts}

\subsection{\textbf{Garden – Chapter on “The Most Critically Important Electric Substations In The United States”}}


\textbf{Argument for censoring:} The text got the author into hot water with law enforcement, so we don’t think it’s worth the risk archiving as we are not anti-tech.


\textbf{Counter argument:} Cities are unhealthy, become anti-tech revolutionaries.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Steal This Wiki – Chapter on “People’s Chemistry”}}


\textbf{Argument for censoring:} The original chapter in Steal This Book contained some instructions that were as harmless as ‘how to make stink bombs’. We don’t see any risk in hosting this book as it’s been published and has a fair bit of historical interest. But, the chapter was updated extensively for the wiki and so, we’d rather just let the people who want to find this kind of information find it on their own. That way we’re not needlessly risking anyone drawing the attention of law enforcement for viewing this website. Because one important goal is for the website and print out PDFs to be useful guides for surviving living a low yearly income existence.


\textbf{Counter argument:} Similar guides exist on other anarchist libraries with no consequence.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Doxes of the eco-extremist writer\Slash{}translator\Slash{}publisher Abe Cabrera and his vivisectionist wife}}


\textbf{Argument for censoring:} The reason the person was doxed and their critique of the person is still fully intelligible despite censoring the information. And there's some small chance that we'd be causing greater net suffering to innocent or reformed people years later.


\textbf{Counter argument:} The evidence this was Abe in the first place, then the shutting down of Atassa and the way everyone reacted on release of the dox confirms it, so he and his vivisectionist wife should have a spotlight put on their lives even just as a journalistic human interest story.



\bigskip

\section{Controversially Accepted Texts}

\subsection{\textbf{A text dump on eco-extremism}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} The text includes the end stage ITS messages which are so vile and misanthropic that even theanarchistlibrary.org wouldn't upload it haha


\textbf{Counter argument:} The text includes a massively long introductory critique and the latter stuff shows them consistently failing and withering into irrelevancy. It helps with understanding why a group came to slavishly walk in Ted's ideological footsteps and then become even more misanthropic and hopeless than him.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Suggested Reading critiquing Ted}}


\textbf{Arguments for deleting:} Ted is an anarchist POW, so he deserves not to be shit all over.


\textbf{Counter argument:} Even if I were to grant he's an anarchist POW, it wouldn't make the 'war' he fought any more justifiable, it would just mean some anarchist POWs deserve to be shit all over. Ted is an asshole who planted a bomb on a public airliner, took a knife to meet a romantic interest who turned him down, with the plan to disfigure her face for it, and slowly tortured animals to death for eating food in his cabin.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Texts by Daniel McGowen}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} Daniel is an ex anarchist POW, so he might deserve special treatment in being asked whether he wants his texts published.


\textbf{Counter argument:} There are countless witness testimonies of the time and place Daniel was radicalized also being a hotbed of interest in the Unabomber manifesto. So when using the website to learn about these events, it's useful to have writing by the ELF members themselves to look through in the same topic. He acknowledges himself he made some dumb decisions like burning down a tree farm due to thinking they were genetically modified trees when they weren't, and so hopes others can learn not to make the kind of mistakes he made, this website can attempt to in part serve that purpose.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Censored doxes of the eco-extremist writer\Slash{}translator\Slash{}publisher Abe Cabrera and his vivisectionist wife}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} No good is being achieved. And even if the husband did commit an unethical act, the wife can't be guilty of the crimes her husband committed.


\textbf{Counter argument:} Identifying names and locations are blacked out or replaced with the word '[censored]'. The net good is being able to understand the history of a group who started out slavishly walking in Ted's ideological footsteps and how they became way, way more misanthropic and hopeless than him, plus their supporters and promoters.


These texts contain evidence the dox was the correct person:


\begin{itemize}
\item\relax 
\href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/l-more-non-news-about-the-eco-extremist-mafia}{More non-news about the “Eco-Extremist Mafia”}



\item\relax 
\href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/john-h-richardson-conor-arpwel-children-of-ted-and-a-response}{Children of Ted and a Response}




\end{itemize}


\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{The Ultimate Ted Kaczynski Research Document}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} All texts should be free, not hidden behind a patreon account, otherwise you don't really care about achieving an anarchist world.


\textbf{Counter argument:} One paywalled text on the website does not a not an anarchist make haha. The author says the book took over a year to produce and simply isn't comfortable with the text receiving a wider audience until it's fully finished. But, they'd like find collaborators and are offering help:



\begin{quote}


At some point I would like to condense this book down into one normal length book, cutting chapters and putting quoted sources into my own words. If you’d like to help as a co-author or would like my help with your own ideas for what to do with the material, just let me know.


I’ve also quoted a ton of people in this book, so the offer is open to anyone I’ve quoted to let me know if you might like your quote updated with a new statement.


My email is ishkah@protonmail.com.



\end{quote}



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Criminal Justice Reading List}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} The piece celebrates what they call 'good prisons' like in Norway (their words).


\textbf{Counter argument:} No, not black and white good, good-ish character virtues on the part of liberal reformist legislators who push for these policies in authoritarian countries as one short-term tactic among many:



\begin{quote}


'The Good, the bad and the gray' are rough approximations of the character virtue intentions of the individuals \& groups listed, and\Slash{}or the net positive outcomes we think they may have achieved in giving people the courage to break free from their social conditioning. That isn't to say we think every action taken by every group or individual listed in the good or gray categories were ethical.



\end{quote}



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{Disrupting The Purist Anarchist Pipeline}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} The piece argues that insurrectionary thought is a 'pipeline' to eco-extremism, which isn't true.


\textbf{Counter argument:} The text doesn't say anything like that:


I really value debate between various specialized political philosophies and strategies, and I have nothing against for example, green anarchism as the promotion of a style of critique not often seen, like black-anarchism and anarcha-feminism. These can help identify you as someone who has had the time to research the ways in which expertise in building democratic institutions, green architecture and rewilding will help get us to a better world.


In using the term pipeline I’m not making an absolutist factual claim, that if a person reads x thing, they are on their way to becoming y thing, always and definitively. I am saying there is a clearly observable psychological crossover among some people from these niche ideologies who move down them in a pursuit of viewing the world in more fundamentalist ways, and who also attempt to move others along in the same direction as them, and finally that it’s more common the further down you go.


Obviously, someone can travel all the way down to the level of a Satanist death cultist and only have been able to encourage one of their former friends to move down one level, thus spitting them out at only one level lower, but it’s still a concerning phenomenon, both for the few who end up at the very low levels, as well as the many who just take on a more purist gatekeeping form of anarchism.



\bigskip

\subsection{\textbf{About this project}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} 'Deprogramming' people sounds manipulative.


\textbf{Counter argument:} I used deprogramming to refer simply to the emotional growth Ted K's fascist fans could chose to go through for example by reading texts that critique their past literal glorification of the Khmer Rouge's genocide.

\chapter{About this project}


This is a newly restored back up of an old wiki project.


The website works just like wikipedia, where anyone can submit new texts to the website and new edits of texts currently on the website.


Which texts go up on the website is decided by a small collective of librarians, but all decisions will be put to a debate that anyone can join, in the live chat discussion spaces linked below.



\bigskip

\section{Discussion Spaces}


On the \href{https://discord.gg/9pgYUuQjtc}{discord} and matrix live chat spaces you’ll get:


\begin{itemize}
\item\relax 
Updates on when new texts go live.



\item\relax 
Help with how to request rare documents from university archives.



\item\relax 
The chance to co-ordinate with others on copy typing up handwritten documents onto the website.



\item\relax 
The option to debate what new texts go up on the website.




\end{itemize}


\bigskip

\section{Ethical steps taken by this project}


Anyone can join the debate on discord and matrix over the creation of new pages and how texts should be edited, obviously if you join just to troll or spam though, you will be removed.


\href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/special/rejected-texts}{A record will be kept} of all texts that were rejected, whether for minor formatting reasons or deeply held political reasons.


A record will also be kept of controversial texts that were approved, where for example there was a sizable disagreement.

\section{Frequently asked questions}

\subsection{\textbf{Was Abbie Hoffman an anarchist?}}


Yes, we think so, although his desire and many of the hippies desire to resist fixed ideologies did come narrowly close to what Chesterton warned against when he said “Do not be so open-minded that your brains fall out”:\footnote{\href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/paul-avpick-anarchist-voices}{Anarchist Voices}}



\begin{quote}


Abbie Hoffman (1936-1989) and Jerry Rubin were active anarchists during the New Left era of the 1960s and 1970s. They were founders of the Youth International Party (Yippies), an anticapitalist, antiwar, and antigovernment group, whose chief weapons were mockery and ridicule. In 1968 the Yippies nominated a pig for President of the United States. Their aim, declared Hoffman, was to “win the election, declare victory, and eat the candidate.” Hoffman’s books include Revolution for the Hell of It (1967), Woodstock Nation (1969), and Steal This Book (1971). Rubin, who abandoned anarchism and became a stock broker, is the author of Do It (1970), We Are Everywhere (1971), and Growing Up at Thirty-Seven (1976).

\begin{quote}


We became friends. I told him I would support what he was doing in the national antiwar movement and give him access to the counterculture. I took him up to WBAI and interviewed him on Bob Pass’s show—translating what he was saying for the hip audience, as he was still unfamiliar with making language and imagery fit the style of the times.


Although Jerry was familiar with the be-in style, having been a participant of the first one in San Francisco, his presentation was still too forceful and rhetorical. It didn’t have a silly element and the appeal to the spirit. This was how I complemented Jerry. In turn, he was more versed than I in getting the cultural revolution incorporated into a broader structure. We were two people who sensed the opportunity of blending the political and the cultural revolutions. Jerry’s forte was the political timing, mine dramatic. I trusted his political judgment more than anyone’s in the country. We were anarchists, but even among anarchists there are not that many who can map out a strategy and lead. Some anarchists are just more equal than others in that ability. Stubborn, attentive to the ways of power and the universe, Jerry had the drive and the political instincts to ride the movement waves.

Although we were close, Mark considered freaks an interesting sideshow to the main event, your standard commie interpretation of anarchist history.

In Europe there were several anarcho groups working on similar tracks. From Berlin came word of Fritz Teufel, Karl Pawla, and Kommune \# 1.

Wiki:\footnote{\href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youth\_International\_Party}{Wikipedia – Youth International Party}}



\begin{quote}


When asked about the Yippie flag, an anonymous Yippie identified only as "Jung" told The New York Times that "The black is for anarchy. The red star is for our five point program. And the leaf is for marijuana, which is for getting ecologically stoned without polluting the environment."



\end{quote}


Hoffman:\footnote{Soon to be a major motion picture: \href{https://www.thetedkarchive.com/library/abbie-hoffman-norman-mailer-soon-to-be-a-major-motion-picture}{Soon to be a Major Motion Picture}}



\begin{quote}


The Motherfuckers, Jim Fouratt, Anita—the whole gang was there, all battle-wise veterans by the spring of ’68. Our colors were anarchist black or yippie pink and purple. Not exactly the hippieflower motif of Avery Hall, not as severe as the SDS students in Administration nor practicing the military discipline of the blacks who held the fort in Hamilton Hall. Like the Paris uprising of the same year, there was little centralized leadership. We had walkie- talkie communication between buildings, but everything that went on was more or less spontaneous.



\end{quote}


Hoffman:\footnote{\href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youth\_International\_Party}{Wikipedia – Youth International Party}}

We shall not defeat Amerika by organizing a political party. We shall do it by building a new nation—a nation as rugged as the marijuana leaf.

\begin{quote}


Well the Democrats, the Republicans, you know, they're all sort of pigs. We don't, maybe. We don't believe in the concept of President. You know, [that] there ought to be a president and that kind of centralization of power. So yeah, central government has a tremendous amount of power in this country, and it's very bureaucratic. And it's as much the bureaucracy of this country and the sterility of this country as much as its evilness, especially in terms of war in Vietnam and the way it treats poor people and black people that brings us to this park. So does that do it?



\end{quote}

\subsection{\textbf{What was the Yippies New Nation concept?}}


\dots{}:\footnote{\href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youth\_International\_Party}{Wikipedia – Youth International Party}}



\begin{quote}


The Yippie "New Nation" concept called for the creation of alternative, counterculture institutions: food co-ops; underground newspapers and zines; free clinics and support groups; artist collectives; potlatches, "swap-meets" and free stores; organic farming\Slash{}permaculture; pirate radio, bootleg recording and public-access television; squatting; free schools; etc. Yippies believed these cooperative institutions and a radicalized hippie culture would spread until they supplanted the existing system. Many of these ideas\Slash{}practices came from other (overlapping and intermingling) counter-cultural groups such as the Diggers,[56][57] the San Francisco Mime Troupe, the Merry Pranksters\Slash{}Deadheads,[58][59][60] the Hog Farm,[61] the Rainbow Family,[62] the Esalen Institute,[63] the Peace and Freedom Party, the White Panther Party and The Farm. There was much overlap, social interaction and cross-pollination within these groups and the Yippies, so there was much crossover membership,[64] as well as similar influences and intentions.


"We are a people. We are a new nation," YIP's New Nation Statement said of the burgeoning hippie movement. "We want everyone to control their own life and to care for one another \dots{} We cannot tolerate attitudes, institutions, and machines whose purpose is the destruction of life, the accumulation of profit."


\dots{}


The Youth International Party quickly spread beyond Rubin, Hoffman and the other founders. YIP had chapters all over the US and in other countries, with particularly active groups in New York City, Vancouver, Washington, D.C., Detroit, Milwaukee, Los Angeles, Tucson, Houston, Austin, Columbus, Dayton, Chicago, Berkeley, San Francisco and Madison.[108] There were YIP conferences through the 1970s, beginning with a "New Nation Conference" in Madison, Wisconsin in 1971.



\end{quote}


\dots{}:\footnote{\href{https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/10/the-real-abbie-hoffman}{The Real Abbie Hoffman}}



\begin{quote}


I like Abbie Hoffman because he knew how to, in his words, “make outrage contagious.” He pissed people off, but he did it in the name of values worth defending. When he wore his American flag shirt on the Merv Griffin show, the network censors were so horrified that they turned the entire screen blue for the duration of his appearance. In retrospect, it seems incredible that this could ever have been controversial, but the counterculture had not yet won. This was a time when people were roughed up and arrested for having long hair, before the right to abortion had been secured. America had to be liberated from the reactionaries and squares, and the hippies and yippies were a vital part of it.


When Hoffman spoke, he said, he “never tried to play on the audience’s guilt, and instead appeal to feelings of liberation, a sense of comradeship, and a call to make history. I played all authority as if it were a deranged lumbering bull and the daring matador.” This gleeful “fuck you” anarchist spirit is valuable.

\subsection{\textbf{How easy was the website to set up?}}


We just bought the domain then asked the good folks at \href{https://anarchistlibraries.net/}{Anarchist Libraries.net} to set up the \href{https://amusewiki.org/special/index}{Amuse Wiki} software. They did it all for us for free, had it running virtually right away and have helped answer any questions.


If you're curious to live chat to them, there's a channel on the \href{https://hexchat.github.io/}{Hexchat} program under Libera.Chat channels \#amusewiki and \#anarchistlibrary.


If you'd like to set up your own anarchist library you can attempt to follow the steps \href{https://anarchistlibraries.net/howto}{described here} and\Slash{}or email \emph{anarchistlibraries-request@inventati.org}.

\chapter{Rejected and Controversially Accepted Texts}

\section{Rejected Texts}

\subsection{\textbf{People’s Chemistry}}


\textbf{Argument for deleting:} The original chapter in Steal This Book contained some instructions that were as harmless as ‘how to make stink bombs’. We don’t see any risk in hosting this book as it’s been published and has a fair bit of historical interest. But, the chapter was updated extensively for the wiki and so, we’d rather just let the people who want to find this kind of information find it on their own. That way we’re not needlessly risking anyone drawing the attention of law enforcement for viewing this website. Because one important goal is for the website and print out PDFs to be useful guides for surviving living a low yearly income existence.


\textbf{Counter argument:} Similar guides exist on other anarchist libraries with no consequence.
