Fair enough. I should have been more specific.

You do understand that the Luddite movement was a low class, mass worker movement, don't you?

It seems out of place to mention a big name artist as a Luddite, as if you don't understand what the word implies.





You failed to notice modern meaning of a word diverged from its original meaning several ways?

I was clearly asking for examples of tech workers revolting.

If you want to bend the modern meaning to imply that Paul McCartney somehow belongs in the same group as hypothetical anxious tech workers, that's a problem I cannot help you with.
