Mad movements!
if you think people having robots they can repeatedly physically assault and verbally abuse without consequence won't have an effect on their behavior towards others, you're fooling yourself. it would be fermenting anti-social behavior.
keep in mind i'm not assigning or assuming any sentience in robots, i'm talking about the human condition.
this is something quite different from potential sparing robot partners etc. this is just allowing people to be as malicious as they possibly can without restraint or consequence. who would want to be around an individual well practiced and comfortable with sadistic behavior?
when it's not enough and they need the robot to yell realistically in pain, sound more human while doing it etc...
society should be rooting out psychopathic tendencies, not fostering them.
fukk that robot(flip the bird, guys), trip that robot, karate kick that robot in its mechanical head. It’s a machine, inanimate, non-sapient, insentient. Robots are tools for human use. How are you more mad at how humans treat robots rather than what humans use robots to do(i.e war). And I bet you don’t care about how we as humans massacre and bring other actual sapient and sentient beings(animals) to the brink of extinction with regularity
