I think people need to chill the fuck out with this narrative. When the industrial revolution came, I'm sure everyone said "now the rich factory workers don't need craftsmen anymore!!". The world was fine, people still have jobs today. The jobs change. The market for software, for example, is nearly unlimited - you COULD fire some staff and do the same amount of stuff that you were doing, or you could DO MORE and expand the business
is that why the Luddites decided to smash the machines? they must've been in an euphoric state from how good the industrialists were treating them so they decided to reward them wirh a free maintenance check using hammers.
