Mind you, the weavers didn't just reject technological progress for the sake of rejecting it. They tried to work with the ownership class and their power looms in order to produce the same cloth faster and cheaper than they had before. For a time, it did work out, but the powers that be didn't want that. They wanted more money at any cost.

This article was worth sharing since we have had a number of struggle sessions and I have seen the term Luddite thrown about and people seem to be calling people Luddites for not embracing the AI slop.
