A few things this kind of provokes in my head:

1) I bet these folks are very happy that they have computers, which Ned Ludd would have been happy to smash because he would probably think they put a lot of people out of work, or cars, which put horse-and-buggy drivers out of work, or, well, a whole lot of very automated things which pretty much everybody in 2014 kind of takes for granted.

2) It kind of seems that a lot of them are moronically anti-education and anti-intellectual and get uppity when people want to take part in self-advancement and bettering one's life through education and amassing enough wealth to live in reasonable comfort while giving back in some way through one's time, talent, and dollars, to which I tell them that their beloved Karl Marx had a PhD in philosophy, was not so poorly off, and believed in the availability of both primary/secondary and higher education to those with the motivation and the ability, no matter their means. It's like they're the economically left-wing equivalent of the right's fundies. Guess someone had better tell them that their computers were invented by educated people and that their doctors have graduate-level educations.

Paradoxically, they seem to be fighting against the very thing that Marx and his compatriots fought for.
