Luddite legacy and later movements

At some point, you might have been called, or might have called someone else a Luddite, due to a refusal to adopt a new technology.

Nowadays, it’s usually done in jest, but the Luddites were real. 

While the term is often used to describe any anti-technology attitude, the actual Luddite worldview was more subtle than simply opposing anything new and innovative. 

In some respects, the Luddite worldview has never gone away.

Learn more about the Luddites, what they did, and why on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
