Best Answer

Luddites were unhappy due to the threat automation posed to their livelihoods, as new machines were replacing their need for manual labor. They feared losing their jobs and the decline of their traditional crafts and skills. The luddite movement emerged as a response to this industrialization and modernization of the workplace.
