Their success is an outlier in the modern world, intentionally eschewing techology might have something to do with it.

>>2116256

no they're anabaptists from the radical reformation

they don't have to dress and accessorize like it's the 18th century to be luddites but for some reason they do. I wonder who makes their clothes actually, seems like it would be an industrial process.

>having the younger children walk barefoot because they can't be assed to make them some sandals from straw or something
Wow, they are scum.

I would assume they do.

A lot of teens apparently get really into drugs during rumspringa and get forced into the church to avoid prison time.

To my understanding 'Idle hands are the devil's play thing', is their philosophy and not 'technology is evil'. But what makes idle hands, idle varies between the church/community leaders. So some have communities will say phones are a no, while another might be fine with people having cell phones.

>>2116181
Do they accept converts?

>>2116378
Are you shaking right now literally can't even?

Most children in the world go barefoot. Deal with it.
