Don’t think of them as Luddites, as they are still in the normal range, but overwhelmed.
Alvin Toffler proposed something like what is happening today in 1970, which he called “future shock”, and today, a lot of people are borderline to being overwhelmed by technology in their lives. Often they cross over to ‘overloaded’ and have to back off for a while.
It’s pretty easy to sympathize with that. But the people I’m talking about just get overwhelmed much more easily, and are frustrated into inertia. Everything they want can only be obtained with knowledge that overwhelms them.
In a simpler situation they do okay, and can work and get results and profit from that work. It makes sense and helps them get their sense of self worth back.
You know more about it than I, so I defer. I guess I can’t relate....’Cause here I am at 10PM banging on the laptop, which I’ve been doing in one form or another since 6AM.
