To be fair, a lot of that is just slightly saltier bitching about the same things that people here bitch about all the time. People whine about fast food being unhealthy and gross, cars wrecking society, etc. Like, I'm looking at this quote in particular:quote:In a healthy world there would be no demand for tinned foods, aspirins, gramophones, gaspipe chairs, machine guns, daily newspapers, telephones, motor-cars, etc., etc.; And the truth is that we probably should have been a little more pessimistic about certain technologies. Maybe I'm reading between the lines too much or giving too much credit to a cranky old dude's nearly century old writing, but a lot of those quotes read more like complaints about technological optimism than technology itself.
