Gonna act like I’m not an agent of Slaanesh. Go Xenos! ❤️
Wait. That’s treason.
nah humans would win
Can confirm. I played thousands of hours of Destiny, Call of Duty, and Halo. I think my KD is like 3.5 with bots, but 0.22 with humans. So aliens, probably in the middle.
Guys I’m ready to be a hero.
Probably not. Just being capable of interstellar spaceflight opens up some really nice ways to kill a lot of people, such as redirecting asteroids. Or just drop nuclear bombs from orbit. Nothing we could do. Also, what if the aliens show up with more soldiers than we have people?
For all we know they already fired a death laser that we’ll never know until we’re dead.
such as redirecting asteroids. Or just drop nuclear bombs from orbit
i mean we could totally do that, if you gave space programs a few trillion (which is the level of funding an alien invasion would cause) we could probably move asteroids within a decade
and we already can move asteroids, just not much
What I mean is, there’s nothing we could do if the aliens did that to us.
@LadyButterfly I have said it for at least six years. Aliens, demons, Lovecraftian dark deities… I would pick their side in case of invasion because I have seen human society long enough (and it was BEFORE events from last years).
@LadyButterfly aliens will not invading us. They buy popcorn and watching how we kill each other.
Sad but true
As a warhammer 40k enthusiast i have to hard pass. Space fascism, while entertaining in fantasy, is kind of very disgusting.
Arent the space fascists human, though?
Pretty sure it’s space fascist all the way down. There are no good guys in the 40k universe
Aren’t Jokaeros basically just vibing?
Yes but also the other comment. WH40K is full of different breeds of god damn awful. All of them pretty fashy.
Humans seem to be by far the worst
What about the Orks and literal demons? Their elves also suck balls and i am a friggin xenophile. The whole universe is a mess and everbody being unlikable cunts is some of the charm but to be honest everyone in that universe is nuts.
Orks don’t have enough structure to be called Fascist (They’re really the universes fastest assembling and most violent flash mob) and Chaos is closer to an absolute monarchy than fascism. Humans and space dwarves are probably the closest to fascism.
Tau would be totalarian communism, and the tyranids would just be completely amoral true socialists? Maybe? I honestly don’t know what to even liken them to.
Lol, so you’re not siding with the humans then. At least some of the aliens aren’t space fascists…
The post is talking about siding with invading aliens because “humans bad”. I said, i am not so sure about it, might be fascists. Now you tell me some aliens from 40k are not fascists which is all stuff not contradicting each other.
Id still consider it pretty bad to unconditionally support invaders as invading seems pretty fash to me.

You can probe me anytime 😏
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Aliens: Sorry but we don’t need anybody for… whatever it is you do. Now get in the mass harvester.
Can’t wait for the events of half-life 2 to happen, huh?
Rob badly wants to become a Combine stalker it seems. Hey, you do you, Rob.
Interstellar bootlicking
If we get invaded by aliens, I’m immediately defecating.
No shit
yes shit
Oh shit!
Tough shit.
Easy shit
I see what you did there
Should have worn the brown pants.
Good thinking. The probe goes in easier when you empty you bowels.
The aliens:
Yep I’m defecting. A third of my own countrymen hate me, so fuck 'em. Gimme the alien tech.
After the pandemic, Im so done with half this country.
I get what you’re trying to say but its not half. Republican turnout has always been higher than leftist turnout. Its probably a third. Thats still a third too high though I know.
If the other two thirds armed up and did their fucking job we wouldnt have Nazis now
I have this fantasy often. Aliens come in, and are like
“Whilst we find the creative potential of your species commendable, the Gini Coefficient of your Planet is too high for you to join our Federation. Please rectify.”
And then every month they just post the names and active addresses of all the wealthiest people on the planet, until the Gini Index goes down. The implementation of this transition is left as an exercise to the reader.
I’ve seen too many alien-themed horror movies to buy into the “aliens are gonna be Vulcans” trope. I think it’s more likely that we see one of many variations on the “aliens are unknowable horrifying parasites that will consume/transform all life on the planet to suit themselves.”
I live in the hope that they’re so evolved that they literally need nothing from us, and just want to preserve the ants nest of humanity as an anthropological curiosity
I like the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy version: Earth has been scheduled for demolition by the Vogons in what really amounts to be an interstellar boondoggle!
My dream is for The Culture to stop by for a visit. They just scan everything and make digital copies of the entire civilization’s total output, become fans of our TV shows, dance to our music, read our books, learn our entire history, then disguise themselves as humans to come down to see the real thing for themselves, view our natural wonders, party hard, and do little things to help us fix ourselves.
ISTR that canonically, Earth is under non-interference by The Culture (except for Special Circumstances) as a “control group”.
Sadly they also aren’t real. Probably.
If a civilization that has mastered FTL shows up we are fucked. The best odds for survival are jumping to their side because they could destroy us easily. Maybe we’ll get lucky and it will be a civilization of space amazons who want to use us for sex stuff.
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is bruised and spongy.
Death by snu snu!
How nice! I’m sure they’ll let him live as their obedient dog
