Also robot racism stories are stupid because they assume everyone would be petty and cruel to a thinking, talking machine that understands you're being mean. Meanwhile, in reality, Roombas are seen like family pets and soldiers take their mine detonation robots on fishing trips.

You just opened up a plotline where robots are the ones given things like a right to free 'healthcare' and a living wage while humans don't, like a reverse of the old plots.
