Two robots, both jet-fighter squadron soldiers, were part of an assembled Robotech army in the known universe battling a horrible species of invaders known as the Invid. These two robots, Cyclonus and Agus, were thinking of ways to make the war more interesting and reflective of individualism and teamwork.

CYCLONUS: We shall go to Earth and collect civilization mementos of great capitalism.

AGUS: Yes, and these mementos will comprise our 'mosaic' for the Robotech war about wrought imagination.

Cyclonus/Agus noted during their treasure-hunt on Earth that 'human civilization' was plagued by a global quarantine-mandating pandemic known as the Coronavirus. Everyone had to wear protective masks to prevent the spread of the virus, and there were various socialized artworks rendered to re-present human resilience. Cyclonus/Agus thought these artworks nicely-captured the planetary resilience regarding teamwork in times of great calamity!

A human artist they began spying on during their treasure-hunt on Earth was Amlan Satan (code-name: Storm-Shadow) a Northern Ireland schoolteacher who doubled at night as a 'F-IRA blood-diamond piracy-traffic infiltrating subversion agent with Interpol-relations' who struggled to combine social consciousness with civilization rituals regarding composed heroism. Cyclonus/Agus thought Storm-Shadow would be a perfect example of 'Robotech People' of Earth who'd symbolize all the drama-intrigue of the great Robotech War. Storm-Shadow (Amlan Satan) is something like a 21st Century real-world 'pirate' of political intelligence and social education/customs.

CYCLONUS: Have you noted how in Western civilization, there's a 'pageantry' regarding teamwork activity?

AGUS: Yes, and for example, United States football 'cheerleaders' celebrate the Western notion of media-driven dollars!

When Cyclonus/Agus returned to their own sector of the universe to re-engage with the great Robotech War, they brought with them various artworks rendering images of great human mobilization and storytelling regarding futuristic machinery and teamwork, explaining to their own robot-armies that various human diplomats/artists on Planet Earth would be fantastic 'Robotech People' who'd cast a special folkloric shadow on the Robotech War regarding the contours of real democracy.

CYCLONUS: Perhaps I'll tell one of our soldiers that our Robotech War can be compared with civilization sensitivity.

AGUS: Isn't that what we discovered on Planet Earth --- the 'aesthetics' of constructed dreams?

When Cyclonus/Agus presented their special human civilization 'machinery artworks' to their own robot-armies during the great Robotech War, their compatriots noted that human beings would indeed be great 'Robotech People' for war-dioramas, since Earth was fertile for civilization sensitivity regarding teamwork romance.

CYCLONUS: Did we learn from human artworks/anime that war-dioramas can represent democracy?

AGUS: We certainly can agree that 'Robotech People' from Earth can serve as diplomats of war-profiteerism!

ROBOTECH WAR GENERAL: You two robots (Cyclonus/Agus) offer us educational media regarding 'Robotech People' dollars.

Would the robots of the Robotech War decide that the media and mementos retrieved by the traveling robots Cyclonus/Agus would augment or complement their own war-studies regarding the grids-lines of socialized teamwork imagination and democracy worries? Would the horrible adversarial Invid species use this information to determine some 'agenda' for universal exploitation? Cyclonus/Agus concluded that the 'Robotech People' of Planet Earth were great scientists of the 'matrix' of socialized governance/capitalism.
