There were many folks rejecting IDes for long while and also RAD. They kept doing assembly and C with macros’ all over.

Still I’m quite alright with people kneading on one hand while there’s the big bad Jacquard Loom.

BTW I vividly remember there was the older non-programmable loom at my grandmas place and it was huge. Like one room big. People used both techniques though and nobody hated it. Eventually there was also a foot powered Zinger and eventually the electrical one. All these coexisted and I’ve never seen a printed manifesto against any of them.

Pretty sure also people were smarter back then.

I am pretty sure the Luddites did more than just print manifestos.

more on the insane side - sure, very little on the reasonable and constructive side. unless im mistaken, but yes. they did more than print shit, they actually were menacing aggressive rude docker folk.

There were tons of manifestos against industrial machinery. Decades of social movements critiqued industrial machinery from the Luddites onwards.
