yes thats the response i get most of the time but his writings are so very accurate and he was a child genius and the youngest prof at berkley. Not to mention harvard at 16 and the publishing of a dissertation that even his professors could not comprehend.

Intelligence doesn't stop him being a psycho.

In fact, high IQ is quite common among his type of psychosis.

It doesn't justify killing people.

Genius and insanity go hand in hand. E.g. Mozart was completely nuts, yet he wrote wonderful music.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I had this exact debate with many of myb friends and family members fine he killed people but he killed bad people not you and me average people. He went for ceo's. And a man with A high IQ left behind a manifesto that the average man can read and educate the masses with how man geniiuses do that???

Congratulations, you are now being investigated by the CIA.

But seriously, there is some truth to his manifesto, but killing CEOs isn't an effective means of change. When CEOs die, other people take their place as CEO. If he really wanted to change things, he should have tried to get into politics or started a revolution or something. For a smart guy, he didn't make very smart choices.

If he couldn't be a successful politician, he could have been a successful activist. His terrorist tactics didn't help anyone.
