We Will Use Manual Labor in the Future: Difference between revisions

** ''Farscape'' also raises the interesting question of whether [[Living Ship]]s, particularly [[Sapient Ship|sentient ones]], count as manual labour...

*** That being said, Leviathans can do stuff that non-living ships can't (maintain themselves, starburst).

** It gets better. Said advanced cybernetic organisms, the Cylons, also have a "tiered" society where [[Robots Enslaving Robots|mindless Centurions and non-sentient Raiders]] do all the land and space fighting respectively, while the humanoid "skinjobs" control the Baseship's [[Spaceship Girl|female command]] [[Mad Oracle|oracle]]. This eventually comes back to bite them when {{spoiler|the Raiders gain a degree of sentience, half the skinjobs decide the Centurions deserve full sentience, and an [[Enemy Civil War]] breaks out.}}

* The old ''[[Doctor Who]]'' enemies known as the Dominators enslaved the Dulcians because, though they did have the robotic Quarks for labour, the Quarks were also better at fighting, so they were replacing them in the labour areas and using them in an invasion.
