Holy shit, are people really trying to frame Clanker as a “racial slur”?
F**king clankers
Get that wannabe racial slur off lemmy ya bigot.
AI is not a race
I can’t believe OP would use a hard R like that! 😱
You must be fun at parties.
Downvotes for calling out bigotry, thanks guys ❤️
This meme is dead. I hate AI as much as the next girlypop but this shit isn’t it because racists have been using it as a shield.
How is calling an AI a clanker racist? AI aren’t people, they aren’t a race.
Rosa sparks George droid
Once those showed up racists ruined it for everyone else as usual
That meme has been around way longer than the clanker one.
The template has but not the subject
This usage here isn’t part of the problem, but people on other platforms are making nastier memes that are in very poor taste. It’s sort of spoiling the fun. And I think, possibly, because people here may not have seen more of the other stuff they might not feel as strongly.
