Note to all future employees: if you’re considering a job that contains “hardcore” anywhere in the job description, RUN.

If a ‘robot injury’ wasn’t grisly then I’d be very disappointed.

It's not the injury that is grisly, it's the robot. A robot grizzly.

This is what Texans vote for right?

Lower regulations and minimal worker rights?

That’s why Daddy Musk set up shop there.

Guys guys it’s all the workers fault trust. We just have to automate everything so that workers aren’t a threat to your price point or our pockets. It’s just us consumers and the businesses nobody else in the world not even the planet itself

Oh, trust me, employers are tripping over themselves to automate everything. As robots become cheaper and more capable, you’ll see more and more of them.
