Are you so fragile that this is what you came away with while playing that game? The game is angling more for a Blade Runner vibe in "What defines a human? Can androids ever be human, or gain true autonomy? Should androids be allowed to self-govern (to be free)?"

That you feel the game boils down to "robots are black people" is more damning of you than your summary is of the game.

Instead of attempting to explore the history of how robotics and automation are wielded as weapons against labor, how they are a symptom, rather than a root cause of out-of-control profit motives and worker disempowerment, we instead must suffer through paper-thin allusions to Americas civil rights struggle: robots on the back of the bus, belligerent masters yelling at chastised servants, and unceasing references to slavery. Instead of a real discussion about power hierarchies, were served milquetoast Martin Luther King Jr. quotes and Instagram-ready parables about equality and freedom.

The messages are pretty ham fisted.

Also it was too easy getting the good ending. All you have to do is pick the cheesiest hallmark options and you win.
