Interesting similarity between Johnny Silverhand and the legend of Ned Ludd.
Enjoying "Blood in the Machine" by @brianmerchant!
"Lludd Llaw Eraint... was a Welsh hero who lost an arm in battle and was exiled as god-king, only to receive a new silver replacement that allowed him to return as a sort of cyborg warrior deity..."
Protestors bearing the name of "Ludd" rioted and smashed the machines degrading the lives of workers.
Johnny would approve!
