You use the word luddites as a pejorative, but don’t substantiate why that is the case. What’s the actual issue?

> Also with lower-case initial. disparaging. Opposed to new technology or ways of working; disliking technological change and innovation.

From the OED. The predominant use of "Luddite" has been disparaging for a long time.

You can debate whether it should be or not, but it's not reasonable to criticize conventional use.
