NLR likely has a severe problem with some "Conversion Bureau" memes amongst the citizens. Like, "Newfoals (Biomods)" vs "Natives (equinoid robods)" and then the additional wrinkle of telepresences, cosplay, power armor, and the like. Then of course the folks who want to be part of the Senshi Collective instead of staying. Additionally a strong split could come up in regards to The Canterlot Resort, Hotel, and Casino on the Mars Vegas strip. Some pretty memorable characters can come from the extremists, and folks who have consequences from being "fray adjacent" with some of the extremists.
A lot of the NLR-based conflicts could be taken from Fandom Drama IRL. Hm. A story about someone who has a strongly factional biomod who became antagonistic to the fandom due to FanDumb, perhaps?

them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''
