My assumption when this was posted 3 weeks ago was that the guy is assuming people who can afford a bed making robot are not poor, thus they do not need a roommate. Its an avocado toast argument, not a “kids are so lazy” one. Second person misread that, i believe.
I agree that this is more plausible, but it’s still almost as baffling, since it suggests that the existence of some people who can afford a (hypothetical) bed-making robot implies the nonexistence of people who can’t. Like, at least Ovacado toast in a cafe was a vaguely affordable luxury that someone could conceivably stretch their means to occasionally purchase. This is more like “all you need to do to stop being poor is cut back on having your chauffer paint himself in gold leaf to match your limo”.
Do rich people think anyone who regularly interacts with them is automatically a servant?
Not other rich people; only they are treated as humans
Rich people treat other rich people as threats

So a missing /s in his post made him the villain ?
