I have conflicting feelings about him, because in many things, I realize today that he was right. More about technologies imho.

The fact that he did wrong things (bombings) doesn't invalidate the things he was right about (how humans are using technology is destroying the environment) .

He also didn’t choose particularly good targets to accomplish his goal.

Yep. He even regretted a the indiscriminate bombings later in life.

While he did some fucked up shit. His writings are really thought provoking and although I feel like I’m on an FBI list for reading them. I don’t regret reading them.
