I hate how we come up as “clanker” as a joke to call robots bc we are tired of AI. And it was a silly ironic term being used towards technology that isn’t preforming correctly And then everyone decided to be racist and ruined it.

Ppl just started making silly videos calling AI clanker and just being fun w it. Then people started making videos cosplaying situations directly inspired from before the civil rights movement. Like “you’re a robot and you come to sit in my diner” and they started saying there’s ’clanka’ and ‘clanker’ calling back to the N word.

They were just cosplaying heavily racist scenarios but instead of poc they are using a robot and ‘it’s a robot so it doesn’t make it racist”
