Greetings
Do you sight the harnessing of a plants medicinal properties as a technological innovation?
If so, I would say that it is not anti-nature nor detrimental to harness/become aware of the healing abilites of chemicals in certain plants.
The harmful part came when greedy people wanted to control the knowledge and distribution of the innovations. So more people had to suffer at the hands of the few.
If you dont look at the intent, then how can a tool have any significance?
Anyways, I am curious to know your definition of politics and technology and why inherently they have negative connotations in your mind.
Peace
