This sounds so extreme it plays like a parody post, or satire.

Hell, I know what hand-washing clothing is like (had to do it myself during a few dirt-poor spates in early adulthood), and clothes come out much cleaner with even a half-decent machine than with pretty much any amount of hand-cleaning.

Washing machines took off in popularity not only because they were labour-saving devices, freeing up people to do other things, but also because they did the job much better than doing it by hand.
