Renegades: Cockburn, Mandel, etc

[Carl Remick]

Re Marta's: "The Unibomber, although brilliant in some of his
analysis, failed in my book because he specifically stated that it was
ridiculous to spend any effort on bringing disabled people into the
mainstream of society"

Basically, the Unabomber seemed interested in *creating* disabled
people.  He was a profoundly disturbing figure who reminded me of
Vonnegut's characterization of the totalitarian mind as a "cuckoo clock
in hell" -- keeping perfect time for long periods then going totally
haywire.  I thought the Unabomber's critique of the technological
society very acute in many instances, but this was more than offset by
his chilling objectification of the people he victimized.
