what's your understanding of why the luddites were upset? from the way you throw it around like a slur it seems like you only know the capitalist smears. I'd suggest you read up on the political economy of the historical situation they were in— but that's hard and takes effort, so maybe ask the distilled hegemonic culture lying bot that you trust so much
Huuuuuh
You fear a new tool, making you a ludite. That's all!
I seem to have hit a nerve!
Take care!
not many people know this, but the ludites were really into quaaludes which is how they got their name
luddite lmao, eat my ass punk
I have and continue to work in CS, try not blindly labeling anyone who doesn't agree with wholehearted acceptance of your hallucination machines as a luddite - now how about you learn to use your brain instead of this garbage tech that's actively contributing to the enshittification of all human information, yeah?
