Next Season
I use to hate my job, now I have a new job and it is going well.
Change is good, at least this time.
Humans: Hey, is anyone else out there? Just wondering.
Aliens: Hey, is anyone else out there? Just wondering.
Humans: HOLY SHIT THEY'RE COMING TO MURDER US
Can you blame humans for thinking that though? We've seen what happens when more advanced people meet less advanced ones countless times in our history.
@DarkTempler7 I'd assume aliens that can travel >4.3 light years are more civilized than Renaissance-era white people.
We do only have our own people to go on. Plus what would they gain from any other interaction with us?
@DarkTempler7 1. I'd like to think greedy plundering is an exclusively human flaw and advanced societies don't do that.
2. The same things we have to gain from meeting them. Technological advances, philosophical ideas, theories about the universe, alliances against bigger threats if there are any.
