Default Re: Why Germany Matters

Another potential source of conflict you could examine, Jürgen, is the emancipation of bioroids in the EU. One could imagine that not all Europeans were equally happy that genetically engineered biological constructs are considered full citizens. Some could be afraid of them, because they are "unnatural" and others could resent that bioroids cannot be property as elsewhere in the world. Maybe bioroid hate groups would arise, much as we have xenophobic and homophobic groups today.

You know, something like: "Europe for baseline humans!" or "Deport the fakes!" These hate groups could be responsible for violent assaults or even bombings of bioroid halfway houses and assassinations of "bioroid-friendly" politicians. These tactics would seldom be successful due to effective law enforcement, but the sentiments could be there in a minority nonetheless.

Just some random thoughts.
