I don’t think it’s bad to insult AI or its fanatics online. For me it’s a distrust of anyone that delights in cosplay racism in whatever form is acceptable, and while they are doing so strive to be close to recreating real racism. I am thinking of people with chatgpt girlfriends being mocked as clanker lovers; it just seems like we can insult loser gooners without drawing on slurs.
The hogs collectively finally picked up that humanoid robots in science fiction is actually an analog for slavery during the clanker spree and as hogs tend to do they immediately started using clanker as a slur against black people and reinterpreted the whole anti-AI robot phase and phrase as outright anti-black racism.
thinly veiled hog racism
Which is why there started to be “memes” about whipping your field clankers to work harder, fucking with your house clankers for not cleaning the kitchen fast enough, trying to fit in with the future AI overlords by using the soft clanka instead of the hard R clanker, etc. Like sure it started generally innocent and was a whole star wars bit about the Droid army in the clone wars shows, but the swine threw it in the mud and wallowed in it.
It’s just never tasted right to me that we happened to land on a robo slur with a hard r.
I feel like a lot of you don’t fundamentally understand or even care about oppressed people when you use their language to clutch pearls…over robots?
Like, you’re just saying words because it sounds morally correct

Clanker is a historic slur? Against whom?

Thanks for letting me know.
I should always just assume crackers be cracking
Wow, I must only play on the nice side of the internets, because I have never seen a single example of what you are talking about.
BTW, who is “hog” being used as a slur against here?
Hog can’t be a slur because I’m constantly tugging on mine and a bad guy wouldn’t do that
Reactionaries
I don’t know that you’re following what I dislike about it.
