    Human supremacism

    Do you think if we ever meet intelligent life and become part of an intergalactic community racism between different ethnicities of humans would be replaced by racism toward different forms of life? Would human supremacist groups form? Would you ever join a human supremacist group? I on the other hand believe all forms of life are equal. I believe in intergalactic cooperation.

    Personally, I would welcome our Alien Overlords.

    I'm more inclined to think that if an intelligent life form exist there is 50% chance that they consider humans beneath them, sort like Predator consider the humans a nice prey to hunt. Funny extremely funny.

    Yeah, I'll bet some of the religious groups will. God created us in his image, not the Keplerians of Kepler 452B.

    The thought of some dimwitted evangelical trying to convert alien races to Christianity amuses me though.

    Also, wondering by the avatar and the OP's name, was this post inspired by Cerberus and the Illusive Man's claims?

    They would likely be vastly more advanced. Humans would have to be their best friend. Like how dogs are to us.

    this post made me think about a book I read a long time ago: The High Crusade
    Most people would rather die than think, and most people do. -Bertrand Russell
    Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

    Replaced? No. I don't think even aliens will make us stop hating one another.

    Something that would make me laugh would be if say Aliens landed and Scanned the Biology of all Humans and actually straight up went.

    "So X race is clearly the superior Race on this Planet, we will be dealing with them"

    I could imagine the faces of millions of SJW's suddenly getting rustled.

    I don't think it would be replaced by it but likely superseeded. First of all we would need to get rid of all those xeno loving traitors tho.

    Biblically speaking, human beings are the lowest form of intelligent life in many ways... so I doubt those who understand this are going to set themselves up as supremacists.

    Which is probably why the human race would be destroyed if we encountered a technologically superior race.

    no one caught that...... what a shame....
    Well said mister...


    Anyway, Yes.. The answer is Yes.
    If you pay a little bit attention, you will see how two groups rather quickly discard their prejudices towards each other temporarily, if there's a third group they both want to target..

    You can see it happening in the US. During WWII everyone came together, whites, blacks, Hispanics, Asians, although things reverted once the war was over.

    It might take something like a war though.
