I don’t care too much about the term “clanker” referring to annoying bots (like idk pharmacy phone tree)—because you can’t insult them.
Instead it’s much better to insult the humans ordering bots to be made to profiteer from them and the wanton suffering they cause.
(Also the origin of the term from Star Wars uses it as essentially a racist slur on sentient beings [droids], which makes it problematic.)

"He [potus] spoke of a necessary confrontation with an “enemy from within” and proposed using our own cities as “training grounds” for troops. This rhetoric dangerously blurs the line between soldier and police officer, a distinction that has been a cornerstone of American liberty for over two centuries and is enshrined in federal law. It is a radical departure that treats dissent as insurgency and American communities as battlefields."
