At the end of the day, I think we are a grubby little species playing with our intellectual genitals on a rock at the furthest reach of our galaxy. We are the Nevada truck stop of the Universe, and we assume that the rest of the world looks, thinks, and behaves according to our dipshit, infantile understanding of the nature of existence.

Aliens could look identical to gamma rays. They could have no measurable mass or matter. They could literally be conscious thought - isn't that the ultimate evolution?

I don't believe in abduction stories or cow mutilation or any other cliche, but to dismiss out of hand the idea that we maybe aren't the absolute pinnacle of intelligence and development in the entirety of the multiverse is so asinine that it doesn't merit argument.
That's a pretty lengthy writeup from someone who just encouraged others to make assumptions based on a grainy video.

Nobody is saying we're the absolute pinnacle of intelligence in the universe. Just that the above shitty video isn't proof of anything. I'm certainly willing to believe. But grainy videos and eye witness accounts simply don't suffice.
