WTF this really is clutching at straws unless they are androids I didn't know about, anyone with a brain cell would know why she is suspicious if they had seen the first

Mind it seems this insanity has lead to a huge increase in people cancelling sky
The reason Ripley has a distrust of Androids is because she has experienced first hand the actions of a psychotic one, at the end she is helped by one and becomes more accepting, this shows character development and challenging stereotypes, so the argument doesn't really amount to anything.
