A robot delivers food while dodging a homeless person lying on the sidewalk in Miami, USA.
This isn’t a scene from Black Mirror; it’s a portrait of the dystopian capitalist system, a system that, far from ensuring a decent life for workers, invents new ways to line the pockets of capitalists by dehumanizing them and avoiding social problems.

“It didn’t run them over!”
For some reason my brain read this in the voice of Will Forte playing the guy in the I Think You Should Leave plane sketch. Something like: “I gave orders for other people to invent a delivery robot! whining And it didn’t even run anyone over!” Random brain associations to things remembered in pop culture is really something.
“Sorry m’lord, we will include the necessary upgrades in the next project:”
“That’s better but there’s still something missing. I know, SCYTHED WHEELS”
“Yes m’lord, immediately”
Hey America how you doing dot meme
pretty poetical
a delivery “automaton” controlled remotely for a prole in the “third world” getting as payment less of a minimum wage and working “freelance” in their “free time” under the strict orders and schedules of a tyrannical platform
avoids a person in the “free world” sleeping in the ground
sold as an advanced technology powered by AI, futurism and self-driving for an “entrepreneur”
