Not clanker but simply: Clank!

[–] lka1988@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago

Absolutely not. Clank is a lovable character.

They will make music and take back the word as clanka.

Proving once again that humans desire an out-group to ridicule. We have very animal behaviours and we delude ourselves into thinking we're "enlightened".

For decades we thought the arrival of an extraterrestrial species could unite humanity but it was the smart fridges all along! What a time to be alive.

I feel this way about my socks. Those fuckers are worthless. I'm better than them.

How can someone feel enlightened by hating on inanimate objects? I don't get it.

clankers are human made & is not human, so doesn't come with human rights and does not require basic respect.

I mean they don't even understand the concept of being offended or slurs.

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Are we so terrible as human beings we need to still find slurs for stuff in 2025?

[–] Auth@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

We can always refine our craft. As new groups emerge we need to adapt and find new ways to discriminate.
