It is so funny that people think that Dune is anti tech, when in the books it is the teaching of a aristrocatic cult trying to bread an ubermensch using systematic killing and controlling marriages, while running the galaxy by creating and spreading religions. But a lot of people are like, Herbert must be anti tech, he made the space nazis say it is evil.
Yeah, the inevitable negative consequences of achieving a superhuman and building a religion around him are also explicitly talked about in the books. Even with good intentions, Paul is the center of a maelstrom of violence
