For a long time I thought if an alien species made contact with Earthlings, they would promote independence, show where the lies were in government, and deflate the globalists.

But them it occurred me that maybe a very advanced civilization would itself be authoritarian and anti-individualistic. That singular social direction is what would let them advance scientifically in order to travel the vast stellar distances.

I would imagine that any advanced civilization observing us would notice immediately that we're an aggressive species.

We're almost constantly engaged in some form of warfare and we've discovered the atom and it's destructive power and have used it previously and show every predilection to become aggressive and violent. If I were such a civilization I would think this corner of the universe a bad neighborhood and avoid it.
