So far the goals of /TKG/ have been: >creation of FAQ >creation of /prep/list >make memes >keep threads alive >have informative, educative and entertaining discussion
Hell yeah. Good job argiebro. If the faggots who run 4cuck ever try to shoah you again, feel free to set up shop over on eightkun dot top slash qresearch. There are already german, dutch, french, and australian qresearch breads. Why not argentina? >nb4 "lol stfu n gtfo Qtard" Chew on this coincidence y'all: Date of QAnon's first post: Oct 28 Marvin Heemeyer's birthday: Oct 28 Who was Marvin Heemeyer? You may know him as "killdozer": en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Heemeyer Let's just say that he accomplished as much as the unabomber without killing anyone. Stay strong anons. Wwg1wga. o7 And Bump
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” countries.

Haven't bothered to read ISAIF yet. Give me the TLDR on how Ted actually wants us to act.
Parker Gray
People do point to life-expectancy when asked to indicate how we’re better off these days. However, they seem to be more concerned with comfort and safety. I’ve heard “Who would want to live forever, how boring!” from a lot of non-techies (kurzweil types)
Brayden Fisher
>rot-talk where are the memeposters, atleast they were good for some god damm bumps
Anthony Jenkins
Has Ted ever address why he was planning on getting a sex change?
Wyatt Rogers
Why not call it Luddite General? Ted K himself warns in his letters about forming a cult of personality around him that detracts from the main objective.
Carter Peterson
He did in his autobiography. Do you mind looking for it and posting it here?
Cooper Jones
Luddism is concerned with machines. We’re concerned with the ensemble of means that uses those machines.
Dominic Flores
Just made a huge effort-post responding to you all and lost it somehow, FUCKKKKKKK.
Hang on for a bit, going at it again from memory. God fucking damnit.
Thank you for your words, there still seems to be a lot of potential to be reaped yet here on 4ch Yas Forums. may consider it in the future.
And thank you for the bump user.
Still trudging thru the text. It gets a bit boring when you're re-reading it for the 6th gorillion time. Will promptly save for (near) future use the posts you refer to from yesterday's thread.
>In paragraph 1, I wonder if it is worth unpacking the breadth of ‘technology’ to some extent. This makes it sound like the intro to a Luddite rant (highlighted part). Of course, it is not only the machines that are being addressed here, but it could be made more clear.
It is very clear that the definition of 'technology' definitely needs to be brought up to date and be well-defined. Specially right at the very beginning of the exegesis. It would be a great poetic justice to draw from Ellul's work for this. His expanded concept of technique vs. muh technology is invaluable, and immensely accurate.
>have made life unfulfilling It may be stronger to say “trivialized the human experience” or “human condition”

We already tried a name change. The results were shite.
At least in this 'venue' ( Yas Forums ), /TKG/ produced much better results: high quality AND quantity of posts. Nobody is suggesting a cult of personality except maybe some idiot memeflag here and there who obviously knows a cult of personality would result in a deadly and anodine purity spiral.
It happens. I know that feel. Moar power to you fren. Anyone who's interested in coincidences, you may want to take an archive dive down the /ATG/2 rabbit hole: Pic rel. Why do transformers overheat and explode? Why do they start to "glow-in-the-dark"? How did Ted's bombs get... triggered? ... How does the internet work? Is that meta enough for y'all? Kek. Apologies if my shitposts are crapping up teh board But have another Bump
ISAIF is more about the vice and flaws of technology. If you're looking for the guidelines for a revolution, yhen you should read Antitech Revolution by Ted. If you're too lazy to read it all, there's a section with postulates and rules which are essentially guidelines to a succesful revolution.

2. The industrial-technological system may survive or it may break down. If it survives, it MAY eventually achieve a low level of physical and psychological suffering, but only after passing through a long and very painful period of adjustment and only at the cost of permanently reducing human beings and many other living organisms to engineered products and mere cogs in the social machine. Furthermore, if the system survives, the consequences will be inevitable: There is no way of reforming or modifying the system so as to prevent it from depriving people of dignity and autonomy.
Jayden Russell
Promote anti-industrial back-to-nature ideology, and if anything help the current system play itself out faster so that it collapses.
Charles White
good to see the former glory. this settles a key question that ted's name make people uncomfortable.
Grayson Perry
Heemeyer is a folk hero, Ted is a philosopher and intellectual, they’re different people and they have to do different things
