It's kinda funny 'luddite' has become short hand for cranks at best, or more often selfish and short-sighted.

I use the term “Luddite” for anyone who disagrees with me and it usually intimidates people into capitulating immediately

It's kinda funny 'luddite' has become short hand for cranks at best, or more often selfish and short-sighted. The Luddites were pretty specifically textile workers against automating textile production. Whether we like it or not automation just goes up over time so "luddite" shifted into the common vocabulary as "anti-technology person."

"Luddite" shifted into being "anti-technology" through propaganda distributed by factory-owners who wanted to pay lower wages for the same productive outputs through exploiting a lower-class that was resisting in the only way they could conceive of.

Okay, hear me out. After some deliberation, I've come to the conclusion that there are two middles, and both of them contain the truth.

Alright, I've put some more thought into it, and now I'm sure that the truth is slap bang in the centre between two middles.
