People really need to understand what actually led to the luddites destroying machinery. They weren't *right*, but they weren't stupid either.

The luddites lived before organized labor as we understand it today. If a new technology came around, it meant their labor would be devalued and they would be laid off. There were no unions to bargain with the capitalists. Their only option for maintaining their value was, quite literally, destroying the machinery meant to replace them.

This was understandable, but it wasn't by any means right. It was a band-aid applied to a much deeper issue (evidenced by the fact that uhh. It didn't work). "Halting progress" isn't actually something you can do, short of destroying any writing on a specific technology, and it doesn't benefit the working class in the long run, as it condemns us to lower productivity which forces us into longer hours of more dangerous work.

We have something the luddites don't have today: organized labor. We don't need to destroy technology any more, we can force the spoils of technology to benefit the working class. The WGA isn't comparable to the luddites. The luddites didn't "use tactical action against capital exploration of new technology", like the WGA and modern day unions do. The luddites *DESTROYED* new technology as they did not have the collective bargaining power to keep said technology from replacing them.
