This isn't a techno-optimist manifesto.

This is a libertarian, anarcho-capitalist manifesto with a sprinkling of 1960 tech boosterism so that they can point at people who disagree and call them luddites.

I'm a massive techno-optimist. I think science and technology has self-evidently bought vast improvements to the human experience. I think it's an absolutely essential part of solving many of the problems that plague the world right now, and will do so in the future. But I whole-heartedly reject sizeable chunks of this teenage-political-science-student level manifesto.

If that somehow makes me a luddite, then pass me an iron bar and point me towards the nearest cropping frame, because apprently I have some wrecking to do?
