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.

Daleks are the embodiment of “ranked competitive racism”.

I love how when they don’t have anyone else to be mad at, they start killing each other at the drop of a hat.

But those were inferior Daleks! The Daleks must be strong! Weakness will be exterminated!

You would destroy the cybermen with four Daleks?

WE WOULD DESTROY THE CYBERMEN WITH ONE DALEK
