* The basic premise of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' is you being trapped in a building with a bunch of these. The animatronic characters at the titular SuckECheeses are perfectly friendly entertainers... during the day. At night, their lack of a proper night mode means that they think humans are animatronic endoskeletons, so they try to stuff you into one of their costumes... which is pretty much an iron maiden. And the only human around is you, the poor idiot who took a job as a night guard. The [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2 Toy generation]] are suggested to go after the night guard because of a malfunctioning facial recognition system connected to a criminal database, causing them to see you as a criminal. [[spoiler: The original animatronics actually ''don't'' fall into this trope; they're HauntedTechnology. The Toys still hit this trope head-on, as there's no hint that they're possessed.]]

Removing examples that don't fit this trope left over from when this trope was named Crush Kill Destroy.


* ''ComicBook/AgentsOfAtlas'': M-11 has been caught saying this occasionally.



* ''ComicBook/{{Sentinel}}'': Juston's RobotBuddy / HumongousMecha Sentinel regularly says "Destroy All Mutants!", despite never actually making any efforts towards that goal.



* ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel'': The incarnation of ComicBook/{{Galactus}}, a swarm of killer robots called Gah Lak Tus, is dedicated to consuming and wiping out all organic life which it finds disgusting. The swarm repeatedly states its mission: "Consume". This changes when they meet 616-Galactus after he ends up in the Ultimate universe thanks to a tear in the fabric of the multiverse. They attempt to consume him at first, repeating "Consume". Then they switch to [[FusionDance "Merge"]]. Finally, "Serve".
* ''ComicBook/XMen'': The Sentinels. The 'pet' [[GiantRobot Sentinel]] Rover in "Here Comes Tomorrow" had a one word vocabulary. That word was "DESTROY."

Irrelevant to the trope


[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* ''Anime/EpicGilgamesh'': "Crush! Destroy!" was literally the catchphrase (and protocall) of Gilgamesh in his short-lived 1974 series based on ''Literature/TheEpicOfGilgamesh''.
* ''Literature/TrinityBlood'': {{Deceptively Human Robot|s}} Tres Iqus engages in "Genocide Mode" when using his ImplacableMan GunKata to kill mooks.
* Arguably, in ''Anime/TheAnimatrix'', the robot that signs the unconditional surrender treaty at the UN, when it calmly says "Hand over your flesh and a new world awaits you. We demand it." [[spoiler:Right before it self-destructs in an atomic blast, killing everyone at the UN.]]
