So a lot of ‘Humans are weird/space orcs’ posts always say that humans are ‘apex predators’, but really we’re not.
We’re a 2.2 on the food chain (highest is 5). To put that into perspective about a pig or an anchovy. Yeah.
So imagine aliens thinking that well obviously humans must be the apex predators of Earth, after all they’re so advanced, use pursuit as a form of attack and have high pain tolerance etc etc.
But they find out that we aren’t. We literally just said “fuck you food chain” and rose above our standing. Imagine how aliens would react to that.
There were giant beasts on our planets that we slaughtered with sticks for food, and cats used to and can still eat us if they so desired, and don’t get me started on Australia
Why does everyone always drag us into this?
