  1. 2:422:54 wrong. the first part of the argument is going somewhere though. he traces it all back to the Industrial Revolution (1760-1840), even though the consequences are only beginning to show now. The development of technology, leads to more development of technology. Weve been advancing in technology a lot. this manifesto contains insight as to what the CONSEQUENCES of all of the TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT are. hence the infamous opening paragraph. (link in my bio for links to a PDF of the manifesto and an audio of the manifesto!) "INTRODUCTION

    1. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have

    been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly

    increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in

    “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society,

    have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings

    to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and

    have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The

    continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human being to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world,

    it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical

    suffering even in “advanced” countries."
