No, he was mentally ill. He just blamed women, and men, not liking him for the root of his illness, rather than realizing it was his illness that was the problem.

There are always insane people who think violence is the answer to their grievances, who idealizing the 'heroes' who enacted that violence on their behalf.

The Unabomber is a case of "I agree with the motives, just not the actions"
