I do not think Kaczynski offered a terrible amount beyond what Jacques Ellul wrote. He does have a fascinating story, and he contributed through his manifesto, at least, the idea of oversocialization which has been expanded on by the likes of Byung-Chul Han (indirect as it might be). The other point I can think of would be the introduction of whataboutists to right wing movements and the detriment it has, but I think that thought will occur in places with heavy-handed bureaucracies. I don’t think I had seen the statement expressed so bluntly though.
I found the manifesto interesting, but it wasn’t compelling beyond the few strokes of wisdom. In academia, you see exactly what he is talking about, especially nowadays.
