Ditto for Peter and the Wolf, but they were not in the multiple choice... :-)

Having said that, and seriously, both Heidegger and Baudrillard have a
marked penchant for what may well be interpreted in terms neoluddism
and antiprometheism. So, while there are here and there ambiguous
pieces and bits that can also serve a H+ fight, I frankly would be the
first to hesitate to recommend them as points of reference to all of
us.
