At the time there was a thriving textile industry that depended on manual knitting frames and a skilled workforce to create cloth and garments out of cotton and wool.

Key Points: 
  • At the time there was a thriving textile industry that depended on manual knitting frames and a skilled workforce to create cloth and garments out of cotton and wool.
  • But as the Industrial Revolution gathered momentum, steam-powered mills threatened the livelihood of thousands of artisanal textile workers.
  • It’s not clear whether Ned Ludd was a real person, or simply a figment of folklore invented during a period of upheaval.

Questioning doesn’t mean rejecting

    • Rather, they were skilled adopters and users of the artisanal textile technologies of the time.
    • Their argument was not with technology, per se, but with the ways that wealthy industrialists were robbing them of their way of life.
    • Yet technologists like Musk and Gates aren’t rejecting technology or innovation.
    • Instead, they’re rejecting a worldview that all technological advances are ultimately good for society.

Why Luddism matters

    • In fact, “Neo-Luddites” or “New Luddites” is a term that emerged at the end of the 20th century.
    • Then there are the Neo-Luddites who actively reject modern technologies, fearing that they are damaging to society.
    • Screens are an anathema to the group, which sees them as a drain on mental health.
    • Yet there is a common thread here: the idea that technology can lead to personal and societal harm if it is not developed responsibly.
