There probably is other life out there but for now we can carry on thinking we are special as to our knowledge we are the only beings able to perceive reality on the level we do.

But I dont believe another race has been to our planet yet, all the "sightings" are so vague and why after 60+ years has there never been an actual visitor stop or attempt to make contact.
All the "sighting" videos are stupid and have perfectly reasonable explanations, but until they try to make some actual contact with the people of Earth then I'm sticking to my guns.
Aliens are not going to ONLY deal with our govts, thats just silly.
Edit: Altina said it much more elegantly than myself but I'm in that boat.
If a aliens visited they'd have to be way more advanced and would probably view us as either Neanderthal type dumb a$$e$ or if they weren't humanoid they'd view us as ugly, strange dumb a$$e$ and a parasite at that.
They might come in peace though.

For one a single asteroid contains enough water to sustain life on earth, with that water you can manufacture all the energy you would need. Second the asteroid would contain enough rare metals and common metals to fulfill whatever needs they may need. If they did inhabit our planet it would be do to there need for a sustainable atmosphere and even then there genetic makeup may not be able to adapt to our atmosphere. That is why I believe they would terraform a planet before they would conquer another. If anything they would have evolved past aggression and would be a peaceful race. I also feel aggression may be a human trait and other species may not have these and that is why they may not have may there presence known on a broad scale.
Agreed, to truly advance they'd have to have united as one rather than having borders and boundaries on one insignificant planet.
Our planet is very loud with the amount of bull ish we broadcast, might be too much of a headache to visit as well, just imagine being alien and tuning into our airwaves, maximum headache lol.

Mind would be blown just hearing their sounds, the sounds of their spacecraft, they way it works, and all the subtle nuances that would have to be learned between 2 intelligent species. I feel like something as simple as a sneeze could be misconstrued very easily and it would just be great if we could feel each other out and understand each other before trying to blow each other off the face of the Earth because of a simple misunderstanding.
If they we're more advanced I think that anything we'd do or try to do would be for them the same as us watching say Teletubbies, completely wrong, debauched, dumb and insignificant, laughable at best.
They might consider a fraction of our species intelligent enough to be on par with what they define as a 15 year old.
They'd probably see parasites as the most abundant living being and just consider us a bigger parasite. From the get go with their technological advances, they may have never even used nothing but renewable clean energy, have no concept of meaningless violence etc.
We could end up being one of the most psychotic and grotesque brings in the universe, our very nature is psychotic, when did you last think about all the animals you've eaten, yeah, I don't give two fks either. Chicken all the way
