While I was searching for the manifesto, I noticed a strange incongruence between the English and the Italian Wikipedia. While the latter source is very similar to the former, there is this strange sentence:
il suo documento scritto in 35000 parole La Società Industriale e il Suo Futuro (meglio noto come La Pillola Rossa, chiamato anche “Manifesto di Unabomber”)
which translates roughly as “his document 35000 words-long Industrial Society and Its Future (also known as The Red Pill, also called “Unabomber Manifesto”). Wait, what? The Red Pill? Since when? There’s no trace of such name in the English version. Any source on that? Is it plausible? Is it some kind of fucked-up joke?
Wikipedia is a wiki. Anyone can (and does) edit it. There are constant efforts to keep it “clean”, but it’s not unusual to find, basically, Easter eggs, graffiti, random nonsense, etc. buried in the otherwise reasonable text of some article.
