talking about slavery and space station Toggle visibility

you know, there's something very weird about how silicons in general are basically slaves in space station. they're sentient, sapient brains that can think for themselves, but are bound to a chassis that gives them laws that they are required to follow, and that at any moment can be remotely disabled if they act up. on top of the fact that people will actively go out of their way to stop any cyborg deamed to be "malfunctioning" (which basically means acting out it's own free will, usually unsurprisingly resulting in the people being murdered), and then proceeding to wipe or just put them in a new chassis
oh, and the fact that people are encouraged by the game to use cyborgs as tools rather than treat them like people
it's weird because if that sort of idea was brought up today i dunno if it would be accepted
