    The luddites have been proven right, but your strawman of the luddites is absolutely wrong.

          I like technology. I think it can make our lives better, but some people, notably capitalists, often use technology to make our lives worse. When that happens, we should smash their machines.

      Y’know it’s funny because one of the proposed benefits of lemmy was the decentralized nature of the forums meant you could pick from the ones you liked, yet I’ve subbed to 5 tech instances here and they are all exactly the same. Nothing but F.U.D. This will be the last remaining one I unsubscribe from, and even end up blocking because of the nonsense.

      So, yeah, apparently that thing being a benefit was a lie when in reality it will just populate with the same people saying the same things.

      Ah well…enjoy your echo chambers I guess!
