Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Oh no he's italian! And his last name is basically just "glutton" which is funny, but too obvious.
Wacky anti-establishment Ted Kaczynski
That's certainly one way to refer to him.
Honestly impressive he could condense the unabombers manifesto down to 2.5 pages. Very cool.
“Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy then gives them the drugs to take away their unhappiness,’’ Kaczynski wrote at one point in a quote liked by Mangione.
“Science fiction It is already happening to some extent in our own society. Instead of removing the conditions that make people depressed modern society gives them antidepressant drugs. In effect antidepressants are a means of modifying an individual’s internal state in such a way as to enable him to tolerate social conditions that he would otherwise find intolerable"
Yeah, I've seen exact same sentiments with lots of upvotes on here. Therapy is, at times, an individual solution to a societal problem. I'm on antidepressants and a large reason is the climate apocalypse, covid and capitalism.
edit: I have now seen his twitter 
supposedly his youtube account (shares the same username as his twitter and was created in January) posted this video right after news broke he was arrested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdhs9g3Wwg0
If this is a crypto launch announcement, I'm gonna lose my mind.
Oh that is too on brand for the character and timeline. The writers are totally out of ideas.
"This video is no longer available because the YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated."
(what was it?)
edit: it was this (hoax)
can you change the @ in a youtube account?
I believe you can pretty easily so I'm not really putting a lot of weight behind it but figured it was worth posting!
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Here's a blog post he wrote about Animal Crossing when he was 17: https://luigimangionestanford.wordpress.com/2015/07/27/animal-crossing-nintendos-ultimate-creation/
According to his linkedin, at 18 he was an intern that worked on Civ 6.
