This. I was going to say that I don't understand the hate. But thinking more about it, I remember hearing tales of how my grandparents hated the machines that were going to "take their jobs" and I can't imagine all the fear that came with that. The hate will continue to grow until something else comes along to take its place. In the meantime, all you can do is meet that hate with kindness and sympathy and pray for them.

This is the equivalent of calling a carpenter lazy because he uses a hammer and hammers worthless because it's makes a man's hand less calloused.

Do you remember the office folks that used to tell laborers, "you'll just have to learn a more valuable skill" when machines took over manual labor positions? This is the white collar equivalent. The reason you don't believe it's making society better is because most of the people it's replacing never made any valuable contribution to society.

Oh pick me! I like making it into lists!
