The idea of aliens invading and conquering Earth is assuming they’re like us

History has shown what happens whenever an advanced civilization encounters a more primitive one. But that's human history. I like to think that if intelligent extraterrestrial life exists and is truly alien and far more advanced than us, they don't see a less advanced planet with intelligent life and immediately think about taking it over. Perhaps there are such aliens out there who are aware of us but don't make contact with us because they deduce we're simply too primitive and not worth it. If so, who can blame them? On a more positive note, if humanity does continue to advance, keep putting behind our primitive ideas (which we have come a long way, at least) and not kill ourselves off, maybe we can get there someday... Or maybe not.

My thoughts: Aliens, regardless of species, will most likely come in both good & bad.. just as humans do. I think humans tend to think in worse-case scenarios a majority of the time. Sometimes its just to get clicks, likes, or headlines... ie..to make money. While I think its wise to plan for the worst, I think its just as likely they would be friendly. Ive investigated a lot of cases and Ive spoken to people in the military...I firmly believe they're already here. Ive spoken to those that claim to be hybrid.
