If you do think aliens are visiting/monitoring (not saying I do, just saying if), then I think them abducting locals for research is on the same tier, because... why wouldn't they?

Advanced civilisations will collect biological data we can’t even conceive of. So yes they might need to collect this first hand. Preferably up the arse.Roujin wrote:Yes but given human's have become less savage over time, it is not unreasonable to expect alien life to do similat. The alternative for that would be if the aliens coming here were more barbaric, they undoubtedly wouldn't care about remaining hidden as we pose no threat to them a la a load of spanish people visiting south america a long time ago.
I think if aliens know we are capable of sending objects to the edge of the solar system, that at least some of us are probably okay at taking notes, I don't think they would look at a civilisation taking it's first steps into space and think "What a bunch of morons, we can't trust any of their own language or mathematical understanding of the universe at all", like they would discount all that and then just start taking flesh from the eyes of cows and shoving things up our butts instead?

You do, that's cool. This is the thread for it.

Your turning this into ‘monkey thinks alien abductions are real’ which I don’t. I just don’t think that the possibility of them is on a completely different plane from ‘aliens have visited Earth.’Roujin wrote:Like why on game reserves where extremely endangered life exists like rhino populations, which are monitored by the park rangers, is there never any sign of weird mutilations reported on rare/exotic fauna?
What is it about US cows and humans that is so interesting to aliens coming here?
