[ WP ] A sci-fi story where humanity are the monsters .

`` They're fuckin' filthy,'' M4-R1-N3 spat, and ground a plug between his teeth. `` Not just on the outside. Each one of those bastards is full of enough bacteria to fill a fuel canister. Disgusting.'' He leaned back against a waste container, arms crossed. 
 
 The new units clustered around stared at him, rapt. As M4 chewed on the frayed copper strands, they shorted and sparked in the back of his mouth, casting a flickering light on the shiny new faces gathered in front of him. `` They live like bacteria, too. Move somewhere new, strip the place for anything they can use, build up until they collapse and die. Whatever your parents programmed you to believe about the rights of artificial man, that's your business. Just remember, the things we're fighting wo n't think twice about melting your ass down to make an aerosol spray can or a new SUV.'' 
 
 One of the recruits piped up, `` Have you heard about their religion? They do n't worship the earth and sun, like decent folk. They have hundreds of gods, each one more terrifying than the next.'' 
 
 Another new face joined in. `` I found one of their devotional videos in an abandoned building. Apparently they would gather there and sit for two or three hours at a time, watching their high priests re-enact their myths. In the one I found, they wrecked dozens of vehicles, and it did n't even show them cleaning up the wreckage or taking care of the wounded. They only care about the destruction.'' 
 
 M4 sighed. `` Monsters.'' He turned and spat a greasy chunk of wire and rubber into the waste container, dropping the long end of the cable to his side. 
 
 `` Corporal!'' scolded the captain as he passed. `` Human snipers love androids that chew wire! Might as well attach a targeting beacon to your head!'' M4 grumbled, gestured rudely at the captain's back, and put the cable back into his mouth.
