the player is never presented the idea that its a BAD thing the androids are gaining sentience


That's sort of the whole point of the trope. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad for AI to gain sentience because it's an inevitability. Nobody gets to choose, regardless of their opinions on how good or bad it is. It brings problems with it, certainly, but that's why it's such a complex ethical issue.

and then there are constant parallels drawn between robots becoming self aware with the actual civil rights movement which is problamatic for many reasons that both left and right leaning people should take issue with.


Of course there are parallels drawn. It's a matter of a population having to fight to be recognized as people and break out of slavery. How could you not draw parallels between that and the civil rights movement?
