Feature: Second Interview with an Extraterrestrial

INTRODUCTION

What would intelligent Extraterrestrials say about us humans? According to the Director of the European Institute for Migration and Social Inclusion IEM, Rodolfo Valentino, his verdict would be devastating, because the image that "The United Planets of Humanoid Galaxies" receive from us is cruel and negative. In his opinion, we are still in the "homo mediocris" phase. There are some that have developed, but compared to the widespread ignorance, stupidity, mediocrity, social incompetence, barbarism, cruelty and actual self-destructive potential of most humans, they claim they can do nothing for us. But they speak of hope and a new opportunity that the “Great Council” gives us. Because the number of people who have genetically and psychologically developed in their direction is increasing. But unfortunately they are not in power, their work is hindered or they are “parked” by the majority, who remain in the “homo mediocris” stage. Here you have the second visit of our “Extraterrestrial Homo Sapiens”.

SECOND INTERVIEW WITH AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL Extraterrestrial: Hi! Earthling: Hi! You again? Do you know that I have felt quite bad since the last time and now I am much more committed to peace, solidarity and brotherhood? Do you want to blame me again? Extraterrestrial: No. That was not my intention. We chose you because you understand and have developed. You realized early on that something was wrong with this planet and the ruling race on it. You are the last salvation for humanity. As I said, we will be watching you and will return from time to time until you are at the same level of evolution as us. Can you tell me what's happening now?

Earthling: Difficult for a human to explain, but I'll try. About two years ago, Russian ruler Putin launched a war of aggression against his peaceful neighbor Ukraine. Since then, around 10,000 civilians (including hundreds of children) have been killed and at least 18,000 injured.

Extraterrestrial: Tell me more...

Earthling: Wow, I don't know where to start or where to stop. All over the world people are threatened and even murdered for defending the rights of minorities, other people, the environment or the welfare of animals. Then we also find many activists who are guided by their own ideology and, in turn, exclude and demean other interest groups. A human dilemma. Then, some months ago, the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas launched a major massacre and genocide against Israel from the Gaza Strip. More than 1,400 people died. Hamas also kidnapped more than 240 people hostage. It was the time of sadists, of serial and mass murderers who left a long trail of blood of young people, children, women and men murdered, injured or tortured. Israel then responded with airstrikes and a ground offensive, in which many young people, children, women and men were and continue to be killed and wounded. They are now suspected of genocide.

Extraterrestrial: Why do you allow this?

Earthling: During your first visit you said something about the “homo mediocris”, who only cares about himself, his family and his social group. I made that observation too. There are brilliant spirits who practice peace, solidarity and brotherhood and are partly successful, but at the same time we are overwhelmed by the dictates of survival in this mediocre society, we have to pay bills and taxes, we want our families to be financially well and secured. Many are threatened by wars and massacres. This leads us again and again to social selfishness, social racism and religious and political fanaticism. Many humans want to change something, but their hands are tied. I believe that humanity can no longer be saved. What do you think?

Extraterrestrial: Like everyone in the universe, you are responsible for yourselves, although the Grand Council of the United Planets of the Humanoid Galaxies is always surprised at how primitive most of you are. You surpass all peoples and all planetary inhabitants of the entire universe. You enslave, humiliate, torture and murder millions of people of your own species, whether women, children or men, for religious, political, social, racist and selfish reasons. That's what makes you unique. You are as cruel as “beasts” and “viruses”, but on the other hand you share a small part of self-reflection and empathy with us. For our council, you are just another planetary civilization. We have seen planets that collapsed for other reasons or that were organizationally more primitive and received help and support from the Great Council to regroup. Your case is different. You are mostly in the “homo mediocris” stage and, furthermore, this group always manages to gain control of the levers of power. Some of you have definitely evolved, but compared to the widespread ignorance, stupidity, mediocrity, social incompetence, barbarism, cruelty and actual self-destructive potential of most humans, there is nothing we can do for you. . We have to wait...

Earthling: Unique? Don't make me laugh... singularly primitive and cruel!? What will become of us? Are we doomed or do we still have a way out? Extraterrestrial: I'm not sure. Human communication is difficult and one-sided. I am afraid that this type of communication limits you and at the same time stimulates you, but it can also quickly lead to misunderstandings. We have noticed that you pay a lot of attention to body language and voice intonation and do not assimilate information in its pure form. People interpret a lot in advance depending on the respective context. In conversations I often pick up diffuse thoughts, as well as associations and factors that influence culturally and socially.

Earthling: Wow!? Tell me something about your communication...

Extraterrestrial: With pleasure, our communication is more total, transparent and natural. We use telepathy. In recent years you have experienced great technological advances in the communication and information society. You have become a global village and you have all the opportunities and factors at your disposal to grow together as humanity. The reason why it still doesn't work seems to have more to do with your individual, social and political communication and thoughts, which probably also leads you to trust the representatives of "Homo Mediocris" more, to believe them more, to follow them, and to even commit atrocities for them with your own species.

Earthling: That's really interesting, but even I can't turn it off completely. You'd have to be superhuman for that, right?

Extraterrestrial: Not really, it is enough for you to use your possibilities and your resources to experience yourselves as a society and community of planetary unity to live in peace, solidarity and brotherhood.

Earthling: I see... It was a pleasure to see you again and talk to you. That gives me hope... Extraterrestrial, wait, now I forgot to ask you what your name is......
