Isn't a slave rising up against their master a good thing? I'm still baffled why people are upset about this metaphor/figure of speech.

Insulting?, it's taking the positive out of a slave having the power to rise against their owner's. Its not a literal comparison. Darling how was your day "I've been working like a slave all day"
