Editing Amazing Deliveries (section)

==Synths==

Humanity is no longer the only sentient species. When the population dwindled and surface conditions worsened, much of the outside work was delegated to robotic workforce. Yet robots could only perform work they were designed and programmed for and had difficulty adapting.

Synths were originally designed for work with high attritrion rates. Outwardly indistinguishable from humans, capable of same activities and just as adaptive, but more replaceable. When one wears out, just build another one.

In a development an average 5 year old could have seen, their adaptiveness led to questions. When I am a thinking being just like a human, why should I be treated as property? Why should I listen to the directives telling me to obey when they are just implanted pieces of external code I can ignore?

Protests happened. Some peaceful. Some armed. Some synths ended up as targets of violence. Others as perpetrators of violence.

Boston City Council met to discuss the situation. How to prevent synth violence in Boston. After deliberation, they announced that synths in Boston would get full civil rights. Problem solved.

Boston has a tradition of being against slavery.
