    I don't see that as likely... she asked for what they're all asking for, the difference is that she (surprisingly) got it. Some might resent her for the connections that made it possible, but that's not likely to be violent. At most, those that feel she's a detriment to the cause would want to distance themselves from her... but barring her taking some further action that angers the robosapien population, they're most likely to take her as a positive symbol of hope than lash out at her.


I'm not thinking about individually though, I'm thinking politically - because every political organization hates being upstaged. They generally want that if progress is going to be made, it has to be made by someone associated with them so they can justify their existence. Otherwise why does anyone need the organization anymore? Basically it's the same rule as unions - they don't want workers organizing against an employer unless they're union members.

I don't think it would be a violent reaction, either. I think it might cause problems though if, say, Hallie is a member of one of those organizations and they're encouraging her to stop supporting Anna or lose her membership.

    If you really wanted to pursue that kind of storyline, however, I could imagine a scenario where some extremists believe she's more useful as a martyr, and would conspire to be rid of her in a way that would cast more sympathy down on the robo-rights cause. Of course, that only works if they successfully hide their involvement, so even then they wouldn't be openly against Anna for any reason.


Now it's kind of too late to use her as a martyr, fortunately...and if they had such plans, it would be a waste of time now thanks to Anna's case. The point of a martyr is to generate public sympathy for a cause; but since she already achieved it, her coming to harm or death now would just bring sadness.
