    Hey so I was 100% correct about the “clanker” trend. Now you’ve got videos of dudes dressed at cops killing a robot and saying “sleep tight George Droid” and “back of the bus, Rosa Sparks” as well as racial dogwhistles about other ethnicities.

    But who cares cuz “funny” right?

    Yeah, the first time I ever heard this used (innocently, as far as I could tell), half the replies were comments that were very excited to write “clanker” in place of the N-word.
