people have been upset about Robots Taking Our Jobs for decades and the flipside worry is that they can do the jobs better. sci-fi posits impossibly strong and incredibly quick androids that are indistinguishable from humans and extremely lethal. furries are just like "he only cares about fucking" or "aaaaaaa h he does everything wrong and , does not have the latest software updates

in reply to @cathoderaydude's post:
yeah but a) incidentally and b) the other guy probably didn't make much effort to avoid it
Furrys' ideas of robots add so much humanity to robots. I'm just furry adjacent and all my ideas for robots are like "it's an old IBM computer but a robot. Give it some time it's trying its best"
When they get sick they get interrogated like asking a dog if they ate something out of the trash except you turn their screen on and they have a dozen dubious toolbars covering their facial features
Yeah, I think it's that case where like, people latch onto characters with flaws. When it's sitting there frozen and waiting for its processor to finish, we can relate, lol
I mean, a lot of us are neurodivergent and find clunky old machines to be relatable, and a lot of us are also into kink... I'd say it tracks.
Plus I've always found "robot as exploration of alienation from the rest of humanity" to be more compelling than "robot as bogeyman 'cuz they're like, so inhuman".
to furries who are already deep in the species and shape anarchy, a robot is just another kind of guy
