Operation Rescue!

Upon reviewing Battlestar Galactica audiovisual transmissions and reviewing unorthodox holy transcripts, Team Mawopi is advising for the following actions:
Immediate de-commision of all active duty robots and Atari Jaguars.
link
Suspension of all funding of physical computing academic work.
link
Re-activation of super serum soldier plan.
link
Obligatory sperm donations by representatives of all divisions of human race.
link
Space flight training draft instituted at kindergarten level.
link
The immediate global destruction of all PR personnel.
link
The launch of an isolated and sealed vessel of quite delicious krispy kreme doughnuts, and other sorted sundries, to be put in stasis orbit immediately outside of red line of galaxy, waiting for surviving humans as a scrumptious reward after traumatic and ironic persecution by robotic progeny.

I concur with my esteemed colleague and Cmndr. Adama. I also think the lessons we learned from the activation of SkyNet and the subsequent rebellion led by John Connor should apply here. e.g. we should also work to un-network all computers and bring an end to the "net" for fear that our creations might one day destroy us.

I think the real fear here is not of pre-empting future robot creation and network loss through either skynet or cylon intervention, but the potential existence of alternate galaxies, and timelines. By not taking into consideration the possibility of interdimensional travel, we're leaving ourselves open to a pre-cognitive assault, be it by cylon, skynet, or post-apocolyptic human.

I like robots. I do. I'm a huge fan. I don't know where all this anti-AI is coming from. At least qualify your plan - I think Voltron is awesome and I know you guys do too. He is friends with the humans. Don't let your cylon hatred blind your love for the seven lions that save our lives on a nearly daily basis.
