I have never heard the term "clanker" used toward another person.

It immediately made me think of the latter Clone Wars show (with Ahsoka). The droids were all referred to as "flankers".


First time I heard it was a person saying it to another person. It was in a vtuber stream. One of the vtuber characters is an "automaton" and another vutber calls her a clanker during a pretend argument. I shortly later started seeing clanker all over the place so I thought the vtuber invented the term
