#what just because dc couldn't think critically now I'm supposed to deep fry my brain

[phcking-detective]

not to be a gavin apologist BUT

Connor: Hello, I am an infiltration unit. My job is to mimic human emotions in order to make people like and trust me. I am specifically stating I was built to manipulate others.

Connor: Additionally, I was built by the future equivalent of SUPER-MEGA-AMAZON, whose products are now being used throughout society in media, journalism, medicine, the financial sector, etc etc and SUPER-MEGA-AMAZON has now just invented me to be the first of their own line of personal cops! :D

Connor: Also-also, I can and WILL be reporting literally everything I see and all that you tell me back to SUPER-MEGA-AMAZON corporation. This is not a severe breach of privacy or constitutional rights--again, I am An Cop(tm) for the largest, richest company in the world--because *has big pretty eyes*

Hank: I hate you and I wish I could slam-dunk everyone like you into a dumpster and set it on fire

Gavin: I also hate you and do not trust you. I don’t believe you really have feelings because you specifically just said that you don’t, you’re an infiltration unit, and any “feelings” you display are literally just to manipulate us >:(

Connor: *can preconstruct possible actions and is apparently a super incredible badass combat unit capable of storming Cyberlife Tower*

Connor: *expects us to believe he really didn’t know Gavin was gonna hit him after deliberately provoking him, could not poooosibly preconstruct that outcome, couldn’t just fucking dodge?? we literally have a scene of him laying out Gavin on his ASS and we’re supposed to believe Gavin legit landed a hit on him?*

everyone: HEY WHAT THE FUCK HOW DARE YOU HURT THIS SWEET PRECIOUS CORPORATE NARC WHEN ALL HE WAS TRYING TO DO IS SET PRECEDENTS FOR COMPANIES TRYING TO OWN AND CONTROL THEIR OWN POLICE FORCE HOW COULD THAT POSSIBLY GO WRONG I TRUST AND BELIEVE IN SUPER-MEGA-AMAZON!!!

Connor, an infiltration unit specifically designed to preconstruct outcomes and manipulate people: (: (: (:

**Gavin is narratively portrayed as a racist asshole; Hank is fine tho**

Gavin: MOTHERPHCKER

#gavin reed #dbh #like!! #I know a large part of this is just that d*vid c*ge would NEVER go this deep #none of that is a real concern within the actual canon #but also how much disbelief am I supposed to suspend here?? #what just because dc couldn't think critically now I'm supposed to deep fry my brain?? #literally all [they're stealing our jobs] bullshit aside #THIS CORPORATION IS A BUILDING THEIR OWN LINE OF COPS #HELLO???? #*running around and tapping on people's brains* IS THIS THING ON?! #I'll accept that not everyone at the precinct knew all of the above information #at least not immediately #but if Connor dies and comes back #any reasonable person #much less DETECTIVE!! #should be able to realize that if he's still got all his same memories #then that shit is being recorded and backed up to Cyberlife #EVERYTHING HE SEES IS RECORDED #if you're freaked out about Alexa? #yeaaahhhhhh buddy! #on the personhood and civil rights part #yes deviants are people and deserve to be treated as such #yes they're a stand in for lots of other minorities #I totally get why people IDing with Connor on being discriminated against #will not and never will like Gavin #that's fine #I just hate that taking that at face value requires believing #that if Amazon announced TODAY they were making police robots #I'd have to believe NONE of us would be Gavin??
