Reply to comment by I_Lick_Vaginal_Blood in As Mystery Objects Get Shot Down, U.S. Sets Up New Task Force on UFOs by Nicolas-matteo

Already off to a great start shooting them down too! They we're peaceful.

Maybe they see humanity is in shambles and they're planning a trip down to help us out. In particular the crisis created by the Ohio/Norfolk derailment these stories seem to be drowning out...

Here's the thing though. If it was aliens advanced enough for space travel or to make stuff like this, they wouldn't declare war on what is essentially a primitive tribe of creatures for shooting down an object they didn't understand.

We wouldn't start war with the isolated tribes in whatever part of the world if they shot down one of our drones.

A more likely scenario is they were never peaceful to begin with and were testing our capabilities.

Assuming it's aliens.

The Mayans were a large colonial empire of their own and didn't have anywhere near the gulf in understanding and technology as we do with uncontacted tribes, or that space faring aliens would with us.

Hopeful outlook. Take an upvote.

Though, the aliens could have come from a war torn solar system, two planets in the habitable zone, warring for resources, but only one survives. A culture and civilization wholely devoted to war and blood...

Or maybe some long forgotten species achieved the singularity, it's creation seeking out to exterminate inferior lifeforms...

Or maybe they're more like us than we like and out of fear, ignorance, and "preemptive action", bomb the shit out of us...

The possibilities are endless.

The possibilities are only endless if the interstellar traveling people are absolute morons.

Who says an interstellar alien will think remotely like us?

An intelligent species, favoring a lack of empathy and unsympathetic precision, becomes fiercely capitalistic. After plundering, polluting, and exploiting every edge of their world, they begin to branch out like a disease. Corporations staking claim to gas clouds and satellites to pillage. This goes on for eras, possibly constant strife and war leads to a levels of desensitization, or emotion becomes a designated thought crime. Seeing lower life as inferior and creating internment camps for local intellectual life, the civilization continues to expand unhindered raping exoplanets for all their worth, collapsing one habitable system after another.

It's not aliens.
But let's say it was. Any speci that has interstellar travel would understand another spicie would need to defend itself.
