OOP has clearly never played "Stellaris".

Ironically that argument only works for the USA, and definitely the country more fixated in UFO is USA, maybe because of the military idk

"we're here to take over your planet"

"Yes please"

.

Is there a scifi story where the aliens are actually benevolent? Could be funny; they are just genuinely kind but the human mind cannot grasp that and continues to distrust them.

"IT'S A COOKBOOK"

Mother effing Prime Directive!

Edit: realized Prime Directive is a proper noun. Corrected Capitalization.

There's always the possibility that they'll improve the status quo.

Oh you sweet summer child of a blog poster. The aliens could make us live like say, how things are going for the Ethiopians, Syrians, Congolese, Lebanese, Palestineans, Yemeni, Russians etc.

Or like people have lived through most of history. Especially as a someone who presents female, that seems especially non ideal.

"No one will save you" entered the chat

Ever seen Battlefield Earth?

The aliens really liked it. It's going to be on endless loop on every streaming service, including YouTube.

The anunaki created us to harvest gold for their ships 👽

This writing prompt from about a year ago on the other site is relevant:

Aliens take over the Earth. They then announce that they will be forcing the humans to work a "tyrannical" 4 hours a day 4 days a week in exchange for basic rights like housing. Needless to say they are very confused when the humans celebrate their new alien overlords.

A civilization capable of interstellar imperialism* would be focused on long-term exploitation of less primitive societies, so they would probably manage us better than the current elites do. A more educated, healthy worker is simply more productive than the alternative, especially in the long term.

• unless it is some kind of swarm of space locusts that just devour everything in their path.

Aliens have probably intercepted internet traffic at this point and without setting foot on the planet have decided that it isn't worth the visit.

Enslaves us and treat us like property? Oh how original

A few years ago I wrote a short story about a benevolent alien alliance coming to earth because they observe planets with intelligent life to evaluate if they're worthy of joining the alliance.

They say they usually take 10ish years to do a complete evaluation but it took less than 3 for them to determine not only are we not worthy, but they are officially quarantining our solar system. The basis of their determination: 10 people on this planet have the resources and means of legitimately end all suffering and make this planet a utopia, but they would instead poison and burn 3/4 of the planet to hoard more of those resources for themselves.

But what if they take you to their planet and show you their advanced society that everyone works a 3-days week and have great healthcare, just to send you back to Earth afterward??

Aliens probably watch earth like a trashy reality show. Just full cringe all the time

Don't forget the universal truth that it can always get worse.

Not give US healthcare again.

There, I fixed it.

This is why we vote for Kang.

I think along these lines when someone talks about the dangers of agi suggesting a terminator type thing.

Posadism always proves itself correct

Perhaps we were invaded long ago.

Wait... "The" ufo sightings? Is this person using language incorrectly, or have i been living under a rock.

Don’t forget the anal probing they’ve been known to dabble in
