    That would imply that all robots were of the same mind. But if we replace the word "robot" in that sentence with "black people" or "gay people" or "left-handed people" it wouldn't make sense; so I'm assuming that free-willed robots have a full spectrum of political worldviews ranging from the sensible to the wildly paranoid - like every other cub-category of sentient beings.


Like I said, it depends whether their side choice is based on their own opinion of themselves, or others'. If it's others', then it could easily become robots vs humans.

    That's a good point. We've established already that some people seem to "know" what their side will be already and othes remain unclear on the subject.


I also thought that it could go both ways. Those who are certain will choose on their own, those who are not certain or refuse to make a choice might have one forced upon them.

Or, as I mentioned before, those who refuse to choose, or choose the wrong side, or aren't sure, will be the first ones hunted - by both sides.
