A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

That's not necessarily true. If aliens do visit us, they might not be able to wipe us out at all. There's really no way to say that other races would be capable of wiping us out, because they might not understand the concept of war in the first place.
They're either capable of wiping us out or they aren't a threat. Either way, not a threat.
