Droids are slaves and people only acknowledge the ‘humanity’ of slaves when they are forced to by the power of empathy or the law and often then only begrudgingly.
The Roman Empire lasted for centuries and mostly treated slaves as utility objects. Feudalism wasn’t much better.
Most people don’t care where their cheap clothes come from.
