Sorry, I mistook your meaning.
You might have a point, but "Luddite"has acquired such a negative connotation, in order to apply it to Communists, we might have to explore first the actual ramifications of the Luddite movement. I just associate it with smashing the machines, standing firmly in the way of progress. Maybe in view of the experience of the less developed world with the destructive nature of global capitalism, the present-day "Luddites" might not be all that bad or all that wrong.
