To the man who loves art for its own sake, it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived.

So any space rear end in a top hat older than 35 was born on earth and there's no one more than 2 generations removed? And they're talking like they've become their own species with special racial slurs and everything.
The funniest part is that this sounds quite believable, yeah. Not the "wanting to genocide Earth humans" part, but the racial slurs and superior race bullshit taking hold in only 20 or so years.

How long do you think it's gonna take for people who discover absurdly powerful space technology to believe they're chosen ones above other mere humans? Hell, how long does it take to form a cult that believes they're chosen ones etc etc, and they don't even have fancy gadgets.


Honestly, my biggest surprise is that this "discovery" is shocking to people. The idea of an entirely different culture seemed like extrapolated information since it was first brought up in the summer thread. This is really just cementing all the information we were given.

EDIT: vvv I feel like those logistics were never going to make sense, but yeah they used a lot of bad numbers.
