This was in a Transformers comic? Maybe those writers have the sauce after all
It's specifically from James Roberts' More Than Meets The Eye/Lost Light, which ran from 2012 to 2018. It really fleshed out the idea of what it's like to live in a society of transforming robots, and how it would affect political, economic, relationship, and gender ideologies. Not exactly Das Kapital, but surprisingly insightful for a franchise which has always been a cynical cash-grab.
I think its from the IDW comic series, there is a new run from some other guys i been reading and its pretty good
