Did you know that the term has been extended to other uses since that time?

Yes. Wrongly.

All human beings are completely and utterly selfish.

Thankfully you are not reflective of all humanity

Can you suggest a better word that sums up:
"One who opposes technical or technological change"?

I don't care. Using "Luddite" to describe such a person is ignorant and innacurate.

Of course you're not a Luddite. You're not a textile worker, facing unemployment due to increased technology in the industry, who's decided that the only way they can save you're job is to break into a mill and smash the looms.

Excuse me? What the f*** are you going on about here? Making sick jokes at the expense of desperate poverty stricken textile workers is appalling and I happen to find it pretty damn offensive, especially coming from an overweening, spoilt, perverted, little rich kid like you.
