No it's not. Ludd wasn't anti progress, he was against machinery
destroying the livelihoods of countless thousands. The Guilds and
Journeymen/Apprentices had been around for quite while.

The current definition is "a person opposed to machinery or new technology."

Your definition is around a century old and obsolete.

The only one 'obsolete' around here is YOU, 'Edurado'. You're not a radio
hobbyist. Now hit the road and stuff a sock in it, boy. Heavy emphasis on the
'boy'.
