Humanity Encounters Hostile Aliens

Text on the meme

Our primal instinct makes us explore the unknown worlds Step 2: Realize the universe doesn’t want us to leave our homeworld Step 3: Create ways to outcome the harsh and cold nature of the universe Brotip: We still cannot disobey the universal law of physics Step 4: Receive a message from another civilization, we are not alone anymore! Funfact:Highly advanced alien civilizations are likely to be peaceful

What it means

A four-panel comic shows humanity exploring space, confronting the universe’s harsh conditions, and receiving a message from an alien civilization. The optimistic claim that advanced aliens are probably peaceful is undercut by the final grim illustration of a bizarre alien creature overpowering a humanoid figure. It is used as an absurd, pessimistic reaction to hopeful ideas about extraterrestrial contact.
