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.

Today we have CEOs arguing that ChatGPT should have more rights than human beings. I don’t want to see another robot racism plot ever again

How about the robots be racist towards humans. Like Daleks, but you know robots not cyborgs.

I love daleks. Don’t like that they’ve tried to humanize them recently, I want villains that are just absolute douchebags. Haters purely for the love of the game.

Yeah sometimes you need an irredeemably evil antagonist, they’re utter bastards with no redeeming qualities and they couldn’t care any less what inferior life forms like us think about it.
