Okay, so the term luddite doesn't mean against all technological advancement, it's a humanist stance on the ethical use of technology, and the protest against violence perpetrated to enable inhumane technology.

So if you're going to cast insults, understand that the Luddites were on the side of society in the industrial revolution

    it does not - lets not rewrite history here. Luddites failed because destroying stuff doesn't really work and that's the lesson we should take. It's easy to complain and break things but that doesn't help anyone, real value comes from real efforts and real visions.
