I’m sure this guy is up for one of those $1 million dollar genius awards that universities like to award.
LOL
If they picked up broadcasts of TikTok I can understand.
What’s that cannibal island people are told not to go to? And some chick went there a couple years ago, and the predictable happened? Yeah it’s possible aliens look at as a cannibal island.
Of course the reality is that space is HUGE and we haven’t made much of a footprint. So they probably don’t know about us.
NIMBY - Aliens, go home!
This is a common contention of the self-loathing, flagellating humans of the left. By declaring that humans are generally worthy of annihilation, they place themselves above the rabble and imagine themselves as the ironic and wise greek chorus of the movie in their head. Plus they think other liberals will regard such sentiments as noble and enlightened.
Are you kidding? biopsychologist? Wow. Never heard of such a program, but I am sure that he is ‘tenured’, and can say whatever he wants (except anything bad about vaccines, cross dressers or trucks).
Or worse, forget humans, picture ants with the bomb
"The foreign policy aim of ants can be summed up as follows: restless aggression, territorial conquest, and genocidal annihilation of neighboring colonies whenever possible. If ants had nuclear weapons, they would probably end the world in a week.” - Bert Holldobler
The universe is so vast that I am sure there are innumerable planets with “intelligent” life, but they would all be so many millions of light years away that it is irrelevant.
By definition, any aliens who might visit Earth would have to be tool builders / technological and curious. Whales, for example, might be intelligent, but they’re not going to be building rockets and exploring the cosmos.
If there are aliens observing us, their technology could be 1.000 or 5,000 years more advanced than ours. They have little to be scared regarding their own safety. They may be simply curious and want to observe our behavior the way we might observe a species of monkey.
E.T. is staying home.
Don’t want ‘em leaving their green goo, crop circles or landing marks on the grass.
And those bright lights flashing all the time make my head hurt.
Yep.
Kind of the opposite of the noble savage;the noble alien.
I race capable of interstellar travel would be no more afraid of us then we are of tree lichen !
They’re afraid of Slim Whitman
The simplest answer is that there are none...at least in our galaxy. In a finite universe, someone has to be first. And it took 13.6+billion years for the Universe to come up with us.
He probably thinks he doesn’t get paid enough at $100,000+ a year....
Good point.
