The untenable technophobia of the Left
Simona Levi and Xnet 2 March 2018
"At least in Spain, the conservative Right tries to censor and jail as many
Twitter users as it can. Fair enough. That is their goal: why would the Right
not want to suppress rights and freedoms? It wouldn’t be the Right after all.
But what permits them to do this is the Left, whose conservatism and
ideological dogma prevent them from embarking on a genuine upgrade and
adaptation to the new –. This Left must be held responsible. In the digital age
the overwhelming technophobia of the Left leads us towards disaster and
unbridled repression."
