Ah, context does help a bit. Still though, in almost any era of Earth, I don’t see much reason for aliens to take interest in this complex planet, whether it’s to inhabit it or destroy it.
If by chance there actually are any aliens out there observing us, they’re probably laughing and watching us destroy ourselves…
You’re reading too much into the joke lol, the joke is that aliens came, found these crazy dinosaur things that immediately killed one of their own and their response is “FUCK this place, let’s get TF outta here and blow them up on our way out as payback”
Birds are dinosaurs, and they’ve got feathers because dinosaurs had feathers. This “bird” has a teethed snout, not a beak, and the proportions of feet and feathered arms are not that of a recent bird. Feet are too muscular, arms are armsn not wings. It’s clearly depicting some raptor-like dinosaur according to the current knowledge about them.
Good to know. Thank you for the opportunity to spill useless knowledge.
By the way, did you know that before laurentian mammalian carnivores made it to South America, three meter high terror birds were the apex predators there?
And that, birds being therapods and there existing more bird species than mammsluan species, the Age of Dinosaurs is actually still ungoing?
We can’t know what reasons they would conceivably have, but based off of our own history we can speculate. We explored new locations for resources, scientific advancements, the sake of exploration, conquest, etc. Is it so hard to imagine they are part of a colony ship and decided to “restart” the ecosystem than deal with hostile lifeforms?
You are likely correct with the last point though. Do you think there is a galactic reality TV show depicting the Earthling shenanigans?
I can tell you with absolute certainty that whenever I step foot on a planet like earth for the first time that is fully welcoming to complex organic functions; it brings unimaginable joy. Hypothetically.
I’ve always found this train of thought to be ironically human-centric. It implies humans are the only ones capable of curiosity and a desire to explore and go places simply because they exist.

There’s a dinosaur in the picture
It’s got feathers, it’s a bird smh
Same thing

Why not? Because habitable planets with complex life forms are so common? Imagine us being the aliens visiting such a planet. Wouldn’t we be thrilled?

No fiction, even one panel web comics, involving aliens attacking. Got it.

Maybe they just want to observe us. Like a form of anthropology. Like a nature show.
