Do you know what thee luddites were protesting? Be ause it wasn’t technology. They were prootesting the fact that industrial looms were benefical to wealthy capitalists who made fortunes stealing the livelihoods of communities.

Which technology is controlled by the wealthy?
Which technology isn’t at this point?

How am I being punished by not using Twitter or Facebook or Instagram or any of those other things that I don’t use?

I bet you suck AI slop out of a tube.
Only if it’s strawberry.
