Meltdown is technoromanticism

I'm not sure that I'm quite getting your definition of romanticism. How confident are you that it isn't idiosyncratic?
-
(1) https://www.poetryfoundation.org/articles/69477/romanticism-and-classicism … Faith in limitless capabilities of man, but replaced with technology. Singularity is a romantic concept. It is idiosyncratic and also anti-human romanticism isn’t ‘romantic’ in the conventional sense but you mentioned in the Justin Murphy interview...
-
(2) an “exciting wave” and sense of possibility in the 90’s that ended with a “Facebook era”. Before, romantic faith that technologically would radically alter (or destroy) society, and (key) it would happen soon was present. After FB era I’d say the “romantic” charge is unfair.
-
doesn't both of these points actually undermine your charge?
-
How so? I say (early) land is anti-human romanticism. Late Land is closer to straight anti-human classicism. The two can be split out
-
(By the two I mean humanism and romanticism, not early and late Land, but obviously both can be)
