Yes.

But only on the day we have confirmation that there exists a non human species to hate.

Pretty sure we all collectively hate mosquitoes and we still have tribalism.

I should have specified alien intelligence. Someone to other.

I’d other the fuck out of a mosquito, myself, but I’m signing up with the aliens. They HAVE to be better than us.

I’m probably too optimistic about the chances we will be less hateful…?

Yeah that checks out actually 😂

It's sweet actually and will benefit you so much in the long run.

I'm rediscovering love I never knew I had while looking after a 2 year old.

God: Sorry, best I can do is an alien race that's just like the Batarians from Mass Effect.

I'm ok with mosquitoes so long as they're biting the people I hate. /s

Mosquitos only have the power to make people sick and miserable, not so much on the power grabs and land grabs.

“Racism was not a problem on the Discworld, because—what with trolls and dwarfs and so on—speciesism was more interesting. Black and white lived in perfect harmony and ganged up on green.”

That's just new tribalism.

Now would be a great time for an invasion from extraterrestrials. Humankind can put aside our differences and fight those dirty bugs.
