I have a coworker who purposely cuts off, road rages and hostilely engages with Waymos and Cybercabs. He views it as his civic duty against machines taking over, and arrives to work all amped up having messed with a Waymo on his morning commute. He basically is like "the machines deserve it! Put THIS in your ai, mfers" after he cuts them off. Over coffee one time I was telling him maybe it's not that good for his mental health to rage against machines every morning. He responded, "therapy is not enough, I need to fight for humanity."
I wonder if these Philly robot attackers feel similarly.
