This is the correct take from an ML perspective (essentially an extension of the fact that we should not lament the weaver for the loom):

The problem is not the technology per se (criticisms such as energy consumption or limitations of the tools just means there's room for improvement for the tech or how we use it) but capitalism. If you want a flavour of opinions on this this click on my username and order comments by most controversial for the relevant threads.

Artisans that claim they are for marxist proletariat emancipation but fear the socialisation of their own labour will need to explain why their take is not Proudhonist.

That post really is an excellent article in truly understanding the Marxist critique of reaction and bourgeoisie mindsets. Another one that people here should read along with it is Stalin’s Shoemaker; it highlights the dialectical materialist journey of a worker developing revolutionary potential:

Class consciousness means understanding where one is in the cog of the machine and not being upset because one wasn’t proletariat enough. This is meant to be Marxism not vibes-based virtue signaling.

Marxism is a science. People should treat it is as such and take the opportunity to study and learn, to develop their human potential beyond what our societies consider is acceptable.
