I remember reading this as a young person and being impressed by how intellectual it sounded. Reading it as an adult, it now sounds like a dressed-up rant from your uncle who spends far too much time watching a certain cable news network.
The larger picture of technology taking over society seems to be accurate as well. It was only 13 years ago when we got the iphone, it's bizarre to think that people didn't stare at their phones constantly only 15 years ago.
I highly doubt that's his own analysis, rather it's Nietzsche's "Genealogy of Morality" dressed up in a more modern vernacular.
Funny, I totally disagree and it looks to me like he was constructing an elaborate strawman. People made the same sorts of generalizations about certain ethnic groups in the past, and I felt like he was doing the same thing and lazily running sed 's/jews/leftists'.

You'd think he'd be smart enough not to go out strolling the city streets wearing the same exact hoodie and sunglasses as the "Unibom Law Enforcement Task Force" put on his wanted poster.
Frankly that sort of political ranting is exactly what you'd expect to find in the 'manifesto' of somebody better known for violent crime (as well as the writings of a lot of people who aren't). There seems to be an awful lot of projection going on in there, for a start, but even that angle probably isn't particularly insightful since non-sociopaths and even people who mostly come across as pretty well-adjusted and happy also write this sort of generalization about their political adversaries.
