Maybe you should read about the history of Saudi Arabia's position on gender equality.

Also....

Consider if it was an article about how an animitronic robot that moved and knocked a man’s wallet out of his hand because he walked to close past it. I.agine if articles turned that into “Jewish made robot tries to steal man’s wallet!” Unironically.

What kind of analogy is this? All you're doing is unsolicitedly spreading Jewish stereotypes.

You are trying very hard to find things to be outraged over.

The robot was unveiled in Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabia has a well-documented history of treating women very poorly. I hope that's not something you'd dispute. Of course the robot is an automaton without any agency, but the combination of the sad history of Saudi Arabia's treatment of women combined with the fact that the robot was made up to look like a Saudi male and the touching of a women in an inappropriate manner was what made this humorous. "Even their robots mistreat women!" would be the gist of it. When the bad behavior comes from the very top and is so enshrined in the culture, as is the case in Saudi Arabia, then you don't have to mention the fact that not all Saudi men are this bad every time there's a conversation about it. Especially not when we're talking about a joke/satire. Because then we're just highlighting a single aspect and are not having a nuanced conversation.
