Erewhonian
Erewhonian is an adjective that means ‘opposed to machinery or technological progress.’ Our word of the day gets its origin from an 1872 speculative fiction novel called ‘Erewhone.’ The title is roughly ‘nowhere’ spelled backwards and the novel is about a fictional utopian society in which technology runs amok. Erewhon could be thought of as a synonym of luddite. I’m no erewhon, but I strongly believe we should limit the progress of technology. If we don’t, there’ll be nothing left for humans to mess up in the future.
