Why does saying stuff alienate people?
Seriously.
shareUsing a word like 'alien' is hostile.
I prefer to use terms like 'extra-terrestrials' or 'otherplanetary people' or maybe 'higher civilizations' or 'people that live in a good world' or 'space-farers', perhaps 'good human beings' or 'actual human beings'.
Why call anyone an 'alien', when it's an alienating word to use? Would you like to be called 'alien' when you visit some world you thought was friendly?
