if there are aliens here, which i am not willing to discredit because this is a conspiracy thread and you should at least TRY and have some fun in life, they're not going to be some fucking cat aliens from lyrae that want to suck my dick. maybe the aliens have an underwater sea base where they clone greys and build UFOs, or something? but that's also just the premise of an x-com game so that was probably a fed larp if you trace it back far enough too
the cattle mutilation stuff itself was probably just the government covertly testing people's cattle for radiation exposure when they were doing secret nuclear tests. "oh they'll just think it was a coyote" is the kind of dumbass thing a cia agent would say before getting found out and having to cover it up
if there are aliens, they havnt found us yet, if they did, then they are so far ahead of us technologically that there's nothing we can do and they'd know it, it'd be at least a type 2 on the kardashev scale
life-hosting planets are incredibly rare, especially ones with civilizations, it's sfae to assume that the most valuable resource on earth is the type 0.7 civilization on it, and they will exploit that resource, as otherwise why bother going here, everything else can be found on other, lifeless planets
in terms of raw resources, saturn's moon titan is infinitely more valuable than earth, not to mention the gas giants are practically made out of fuel
but all of these can be found elsewhere with relative ease, what is infinitely rarer is life
HOWEVER, i doubt rhey know we exist, cuz unnatural radio transmissions from earth have only started less than a century ago, the chance for aliens to be within 100 lightvyears of us is next to zero, as the math which fermi's paradox was derived from suggests there are approximately 10 space-faring civilizations in the milky way
tho if the asteroid oumuamua was an alien recon craft, then they know about us and just don't care
after we'd have a few cold wars and maybe WW3 and WW4, we might be technologically advanced enough to probe their asses instead
the only time humanity undergoes rapid technological advancement is during a war, like, because of WW1 and WW2 we moved from the wright flier to the moon landing in less than a century
the cold war lead to the US almost creating project pluto as a side project, thats a mach 3 nuclear ramjet cruise missile MADE WITH 1950S TECHNOLOGY FOR FUCK'S SAKE
if there was no cold war, we'd still be in the 40s technologically, if WW1 and WW2 didnt happen we'd have amish-level technology or even lower
imagine what a WW3 will do, or a WW4,
after WW4 we'd drfinitely be a type 2 civilization
assuming WW3 results in total pajeet death (niggers are not a threat to humanity as a whole, as they are unable to organize in groups bigger than 150 individuals without devolving into infighting) (TPD is a much higher priority than TND) (also the political conditions that allow for TPD will also make TND a viable option)
hence why i am staunchingly pro-war
which war: any war that involves at least one technologically-advanced party
idrc which side wins, as long as useful data comes out of it, every casuality is one step ahead for taking over the universe and showing these grey bastards who's boss
