@lizzy @coolbean That is more your warped perception of luddism. Luddism is a very specific petite-bourgeois movement to protect artisanal labour against centralisation and effectivisation of capital. Luddites weren't against technology they were against the factories threatening their artisanal craft. It's a reactionary line of thinking.
