    We'll have both types of racism.

    Yes, for the same reasons, we have any specific group bound by any superficial similarities, and equating that to being the same or for the same cause or caring about the same issues. However I think for the most should Human's meet other intelligent life, most of what we imagine will seem upside down and on it's head.


    Racism, is purely fucking stupid concept, that like most things we fail to progress past.

    More likely, it would be the other way around. People would worship them as gods, since that's essentially what they would be to us.

    Nope. If there was a war with alien civilization, then humans could probably set aside their differences and focus on defeating enemy. But otherwise, nothing will really change. Why would encountering alien race make someone who consider blacks as subhumans to change his mind? I don't see a reason.

    Not necessarily. If they actually came here, perhaps. But it's entirely possible for us to shout across the cosmos to some species at the same technological and social level as ourselves, so long as we can find them.

    Of course not. How else would there be TvT in starcraft?

    -"Fear The Alien. Hate The Alien. Kill The Alien."

    Why do we fight?
    -To protect the Imperium and deliver mankind from the evil of the xenos, the mutant and the heretic!
    What is the xenos?
    -A blight to be purged!


    Those who seek to ingratiate themselves with Xenos are traitors to the Imperium of Mankind.

    The thought of some dimwitted evangelical trying to convert alien races to Christianity amuses me though.
    Evangelicals trying to convert them to Christianity is actually not the worst reaction possible. I have read a evangelical blog talking about aliens a few years ago. The conclusion was: If aliens really exists they must all be irredeemably evil since Jesus was only sent to Earth.

    I want aliens to come down and breed with us.
    I want to breed with aliens.
    Or them to use me as a breeding container.
    Either way, it can only strengthen our gene pool.

    Hopefully they have dolphin like features.....

    I do think we'd probably replace our racism with racism towards aliens. Some people always need an "other" to blame all the problems on. The Irish were it at one point, and Italians. But that's been let go of.

    I could imagine the faces of millions of SJW's suddenly getting rustled.
    Considering there is only 1 race of human beings, i guess they'd be dealing with something other than humans if they didn't select a human to "deal with".

    Human reactions to alien contact.

    If they are good aliens we should EXTERMINATUS them.

    If they are bad aliens we should EXTERMINATUS them.
