    Now imagine if they'd made the robot's plastic casing black instead of white. CNN’s headline becomes "Owning black colored robots to perform menial tasks is
    sign you're pro-slavery and a white supremacist."


    Abso-flipping-lutely! It's as if the only way they can get viewers and
    clicks is to be as provocative as possible and what's more provocative
    than accusations of racism? Look at their ratings and their content and
    tell me I'm wrong!

    Meanwhile, Darth Vader -- i.e., the villain of Our Times -- sported all
    black, while his minions looked like the guys in the clip. Pick an
    accusation, any accusation, and dial up an example that proves it...
