Old Mennonites
(Under Construction)
In the future we will be recognized by what technology we use, not by how we dress. This then is the primary difference in 2025 (and beyond) between "Old" Mennonites and other Mennonite and Amish groups.
Unlike Old Order Mennonites, "Old" Mennonites will not be defined by clothing styles, usage of horse and buggy teams, etc., but by what technologies are used (or not used).
Unlike post-modern assimilated Mennonite groups, Old Mennonites, or "Old Techs" (est. January, 2025), shun all Artificial-Intelligence (AI Agent) based computer technologies. The primary purpose for this is their opposition to trans-humanist philosophy, and its usage of AI to realize the union of humanity with what is referred to as the "singularity", including the implant of neural links with the human brain.
As a practical example, cars are acceptable, but not with AI powered computer screens on the dashboard. Home phones are acceptable, but not any types of AI empowered devices, especially those which may be worn, like AI glasses.
