Luddite Populism

A conversation with Louis Anslow of the Pessimists Archive.

Rob Tracinski talks to Louis Anslow, creator and curator of the Pessimists Archive, which chronicles the long history of techno-pessimism, about the “science folklore” of the “Black Mirror fallacy” and the scarcity bias that induces a false nostalgia for the past.

We also talk about how this feeds illiberalism by encouraging “Luddite populism” on both the left and the right.
