[Serious] The Post-Technological World.
#23
RE: The Post-Technological World.
Ignore who?

Societies collapse most likely because it encounters critical problems it lacks either the organization, or the social cohesion and flexibility to implement dynamic solutions.   When critical problem prove intractable, the society tends to externalize the problem.

People who are least dependent on technology are also those who are least able to resist the predations of the technological societies seeking to externalize the problem.  So they become the victims of choice when a frustrated technological civilization unable to solve its own problem cast about formexternal victim to blame.

So I think far from being the most able to weather collapse of technological civilization, those who are least dependent on technology would also be the earliest victims of the collapse of technological civilization.

Technological civilization will not collapse until it has killed most of those who can survive its own collapse.
