This is a good time to mention how we have been propagandized about the Luddites.
This is precisely the issue they had with the newindustrial tooling up they were facing, it wasn’t the tools, per se, that they objected to, but the de skilling and Disenfranchisement of the way those tools were being deployed by industrialists.
Being a luddite was and is about ownership of the tools and abuse by capitalists on skilled workers, and the disruption of our important knowledge base and skill sets.
