The interviews on The Majority Report are so good and in depth.
I always feel bad when I time them out while working. I can’t help that I do that. Sucks.
Comment on Everyone Is a Luddite Now

The Majority Report had an excellent interview with Brian Merchant who wrote a book “Blood in the Machine” about the luddites. It is quite interesting that luddites were not against technology, they were against the owner class using machines to replace skilled workers with unskilled workers using mechanized systems for lower pay and taking all the profits.

Time them out? What does this mean?
chunkystyles@sopuli.xyz 6 months ago
I meant “tune”. Edited above. Phone autocorrect.

I listen to them at work the night after. I’ll be listening to Fridays show tonight.

There are also two rather excellent podcast episodes about luddites and the book, one by 99 percent invisible and another by Cautionary Tales.
