Some people say Earth is
visited
by aliens who choose to remain in secret. If it’s true, what could they want? Certainly, they must be so technologically superior to us that they can’t possibly need anything technological from us. If they need resources (some say they’re after gold or water), wouldn’t they just take those resources? It’s not as if we could resist them, so why do they hide?
I have a hypothesis.
There is something we have that they don’t have that would require their remaining hidden in order to get. That thing is our culture. They’re observing our art, our music, our mistakes, our wars, and our silly little sciences struggling to understand the universe. They enjoy watching us in our wild, undisturbed, primitive state. They see our highest technology and think, “Isn’t that cute. Look what they think they invented.” They take deep breaths of our pollution and it makes them feel rustic and quaint.
Were they to reveal themselves
to us, they would infect our culture with their culture, and we would no longer be wild. We would no longer be natural. Everything alien would become the latest fad. Our music would start to sound more like theirs. Our TV would tell alien gossip. Our schools would teach their math and languages. The more we became like them, the less entertaining we would be for them. That is why they hide. Earth is a wildlife preserve for aliens. They come here to get back to nature, as we go to the park to watch the squirrels.

you
can
always
trust
aliens
when
they
say
"we
come
in peace"
i think i've been watching too much sci-fi lately. because now every little sound is probably a fishhead alien ready to tear me to pieces or recruit me as an alien slave or take over my planet or something along those lines and what's worse is that i'm only a weak, little human, i mean, i'm not even armed. which is probably for the best.

Either we are alone in this universe or we are
not,
both are equally terrifying.

If aliens saw us walking our dogs and picking up their
poop,
who would they think is in charge?
We have stereotypes for aliens
We have stereotypes for things we don't even know anything about.
Just let that sink in.
