If anyone wanted this.

**** man, the shadow, the fear in their eyes and the apathy in Russia's eyes is making me sweat. This is truly the most artistic Polandball I've seen.

Both of these run under the assumption that only humans feel **** like "spite" or "revenge"...
Dude, there's other **** around here that does that as well. If a crow can understand attacking a ************ over spite, I'm pretty sure these "advanced alien species" will as well. And the whole "swim in liquids despite breathing air"? C'mon, dude. There are ducks that dive in the ocean, aquatic mammals that beach themselves, and fish that flop over patches of dry land. And what other than our "external manipulators" will we use to kill? Our ******* bellybuttons?
Nah, both these stories just glorify and worship humans over something that isn't really unique to us.

Nah, because these stories all try and fail at the same genre.
Sci-fi is best when left when it doesn't break from reality. The fact is, the desire to strike back at those who wrong you is inherent in many species. It's like the rest of the universe has evolved into either the race that attacks because Deus Ex Machina, or the race that has evolved to be a bunch of passive pussies who would have been wiped out if not for the amazing ability of humans to get pissed off.
These little "personal journals from aliens" stories all act as if seeing a species get pissed off is a rare thing. It isn't. It's pretty ******* basic.

Did I say that it can't be fictitious? While you accuse me of ignoring the "fiction" part of sci-fi, I'm accusing you of ignoring the "science" aspect.
I don't doubt there are peaceful aliens out there. There could be a whole ******* planet of peace-loving monks who survive off of nothing but the radiation of the ******* sun and the happiness of the rest of their species.
But these stories all run under the same assumptions
1: We are a new species to this higher order of planets.
2: These other planets are aware and knowledgeable of each other.
3: Another species out there is capable of desiring and acting out the destruction/subjugation of other species.
4: We're the first species they've seen to engage in (insert menial human trait here).
Even if everyone in the galaxy beyond us and the antagonist species are peace-loving blobs from the feel-good nebula, those blobs are aware of the other species. A species who is clearly capable of some amount of malice, or else their conquest wouldn't be that big of a deal.
And not a single one of these human traits that are touted about are even exclusive to humans. Petty vengeance, grudges, pyrrhic victory, going with fight over flight, adrenaline... These all exist in a huge number of species.
The reality, the SCIENCE aspect of science fiction, is what sets the genre apart from high fantasy. I'd buy it if this other alien species only knew us, or if they singled out some trait that would come in handy for most colonizing species, but the fact that they're glorifying us for things that always boil down to "humans aren't the strongest, but gosh darn are they plucky" as if that somehow explains how we end up like the ******* ewoks against the stormtroopers.

What is so irrational and awe-inspiring about fighting over the last scrap of food?
What is so ******* unexpected about a species not wanting to be brought into the fold? Did the warlike race seriously not anticipate there ever being another race that would nut-up and tell them to **** off? These are space-travelling beings capable of siegecraft across at least one galaxy... They aren't some unaware neolithic caveman who sharpens a stick and can't anticipate someone throwing a rock at their skull when they start stabbing people.
And none of these stories even HAVE a hail-mary play. They just say the same ******** :
"Humans showed up. HOW CUTE!!!"
"Oh no, not mean planet invaders!"
"The humans are helping, but we're still losing!"
"Oh, wait, nevermind. The humans won despite all odds because ___"
Where ____ is always some basic ******* aspect about humans that anything composed of more than a singular cell is likely to be capable of.

Those first two fall under the points I made in the other conversation we're having. How are we the only species that doesn't want to get ****** for survival? Would you take a daily dicking for your dinner? I wouldn't. And I doubt the rest of the sentient galaxy is on board with the "let's get ****** by space conquering" train either.
Show me the actual hail mary play. Show me. Give me a screencap that isn't just "the humans somehow managed to pull through, despite the odds." stretched over a paragraph. Give me the details, and I'll give you that point. Because every time I see these threads, it is always beyond vague. It is always the opposition randomly giving up for reasons never divulged beyond "the humans pulled it off".
I've never seen a giraffe build a spear, but I've seen a crab rip off its own arm. I've seen a dog collapse a hole to make prey run out the other side. I've seen a fish push other fish into a filter intake repeatedly. I've watched cows gather together and stomp to ensure the demise of whatever spooked them. I've watched dozens of animals devise a dozen ways each to kill other animals. Whether it be out of territorial drive, impressing the opposite sex, survival, or pure sociopathic spite, other species know how to kill themselves and other species. It's not a terribly difficult concept to most species.

All examples you listed were from earth which we already established was a hostile enviroment, well suited for the development of violent creatures

As for the hail-mary play I am looking for the one about contingency 11, which is by far my favorite piece.

Post it, and I'll give you that point. Show me one glimmering example of exactly how humans end up on top of the entire war, not just one encounter or battle, and I'll concede.
But all I've ever seen were specifics, like you mentioned driving a ship into the engine of another. But all these plans end up costing the humans ships on a 1:1 ratio, and that's only the best of them. Put that with the fact that these stories always have us outnumbered immensely, and I really can't make the jump from there to victory for the humans.

Touching, but that didn't seem like one of these intergalactic war tunes I'm complaining of. I'll concede it to you, but truly, that wasn't a game changing victory by the sounds of things. Not on the scope that the stories usually tell. "The whole galaxy, waiting in fear for the tyrant invaders, but somehow the humans push them back."

This thread is so old I can't even remember the points you're arguing here...
What I was saying (a year ago) was that these stories always run off the assumption that we are the only species capable of something simple and menial. LIke an advanced alien race never saw the advantage of blowing up ships by crashing other ships into them... Somehow entire swaths of intergalactic peaceful aliens exist in fear of a single invading-type alien, yet are astonished by the fact that we are aggressive.
How can you have super-advanced civilizations that have been part of this intergalactic organization longer than we've been using steam, but somehow have them blinded to the basic ideas like "they don't care how many die, as long as they win" or "victory means more than death" or "freedom is more important than life"?
Seriously though, a year after the fact? How the hell did you even find this comment thread?

The one story about adrenaline - I buy that one. It's a chemical compound that other species from non-aggressive ecosystems may never have come across naturally or otherwise. But sacrifice for others of the same species isn't something that could be unobservable. I can understand if we come across a planet of peaceful teddy bears and have them be astounded by our ******** . But these stories always have some super-powerful aggressor. So these species know that aggression, self-centered behavior, and **** like that exists. None of the traits ever described are ever so special that only humans have it, yet the aliens all sit in awe as we show these traits. That's my issue.
The comment you replied to in the first place is almost a year old... Even if this content made it to the front page, how would my comment even be findable?

Show me any creature who has what you can legitimately call "arms", and doesn't use it as some sort of weapon. Even if only to swing the claws at the other end. ****** sake, even birds beat ******* around with their wings, despite how essential and fragile they are.
And if a species exists with no predators, why will it evolve? It will evolve because the members of its own species are the actual predators. Even if not for actual attempts of violence, there is always a finite amount of any resource. Including water and breathable air. A planet populated by White-tails would go extinct in the blink of an eye, simply because they would breed out of control and over-tax the planet.
And even if we go beyond that, ignore that evolution would not take that course, ignore the fact that it CAN'T... How are these the first ******* we come into contact with? And vice versa? Hell, I've yet to read a single one of these stories that says we're the first aliens these other species meet. There's always some galactic federation or evil tyrant race every time. And somehow, we're the first species they've met to know guile, petty revenge, deception, determination, or self-sacrifice? Somehow there is an entire galaxy of ************* who are eons ahead of us in a million different ways, but they're baffled and flabbergasted to see someone fight to the last man and survive off scraps like every ******* colony species does?

What is the difference between A vs. B-F and Humans Vs. Humans? Seriously, how can a species who has already seen a conquering/colonial species not understand a conquering/colonial species existing elsewhere? Like race A is the only race to ever decide to leave its own planet and take another.
Let us assume it is then. That B-F never knew a race to conquer before A. And A never met resistance before humans... Why do all these stories have species A stomping through like super storm troopers from hell, until they meet the humans? Why would species A be armed to the teeth like these stories always depict them to be? Prepared for some massive battle that only the humans and their can-do attitude can win? Our tactics aren't exactly the most cunning, our famed strategist Sun-Tzu suggests getting the high ground and not letting them make your dudes sad. It always comes down to some genetic factor that we have that the rest of the galaxy cannot even fathom. They can look at us as quaint with our little rocket ships and curiosity, but the second we smack someone for doing harm to us, it's like we're the ******* gods of war and death, despite there already being a ******* death militia marching on the galaxy in the form of species A.

I didn't say we came out like gods of war, I said these stories always herald us like we are. The last few paragraphs are always the passive species praising us and our ability to not just get shot and give up like it's the single greatest act of heroism they've ever witnessed or heard about through their own histories.
And if the Fauna of a planet are worth building a space-trekking commando unit, what the **** is so special about the humans? If there is some other species out there that can be pissed off at species A for being on their planet, why is it so spectacular when humans do it? If you jump in a gorilla habitat and get throttled, what makes you think jumping into a human household isn't going to garner a negative response? What reason would the residents of this new hypothetical planet with the dangerous fauna have for killing species A? Would it be territory, hunger, a blatant desire to kill anything and everything?
How would any other species warrant a ******* space armada, without tipping off the rest of the galaxy to the presence of species who don't just sit down and take being invaded?

You should look at the difference between sentience and sapience m8

"If there is some other species out there that can be pissed off at species A for being on their planet, why is it so spectacular when humans do it?"

But there wasn't another species that was pissed off at species A for being on their planet, friend. Humans were the first in that scenario, and that is why they are surprising.

"If you jump in a gorilla habitat and get throttled, what makes you think jumping into a human household isn't going to garner a negative response?"

The gorilla isn't going to steal one of your ships and ram it into the exhaust port of a cruiser to avenge its family

"How would any other species warrant a ******* space armada, without tipping off the rest of the galaxy to the presence of species who don't just sit down and take being invaded?"

I think you are trying to ask why wouldn't humans see this massive space armada.
Have you ever considered they might not park their fleet in direct line of sight long enough for us to notice and verify what we are seeing ?

I asked why make space marines if humans were the first resistance they encountered. You posed that there is another planet with killer fauna that would warrant a fleet of ass-kickers before the humans got involved.
So explain to me what sort of fauna can be known to exist, have the desire and ability to kill, and yet not make species B-F believe that there are other species that will kill or destroy for their own motives? Why is the idea of violence so foreign to these species? There is no way for species A to warrant building a space armada to take out what they considered to be a galaxy of Switzerlands. Why take these galactic shock troops around the galaxy to suppress jellyfish people?
I'm not asking how humans weren't aware, I just don't comprehend how these other species somehow can't even fathom the idea of self-sacrifice, or the other half a dozen "specifically human" traits I've rattled off. How is it beyond their understanding? I can buy that they don't participate, that they won't kill themselves over a grudge, but to truly and utterly be dumbfounded by the prospect that someone would? It doesn't make sense that this wise and studious species couldn't grasp the basics of our species psychology. We manage to grasp the psychology of species that can hardly communicate with us (if at all), even if only on some of the more basic channels. But a species completely capable of conversation with us? As in actual cerebral conversation, communication in totale as we as humans know it... And they can't get why we would do some pretty simple ******* things?

plus all europeans know that if russia would start something it would be america asking to be allowed to go to war with them on our behalf and not us asking them to defend us.

it would finally be your time to have a nice big war against an insane KGB trained psychopath.

there, it's not much but its all i can do with me being really tired hopefully it starts something

Actually, america is one of the few countries were you get the nationality if you are born in the country.

In most countries, at least in Europe, it depends on the nationality of you parents which one you get. If they have different ones they can choose as normally you aren't allowed to have two nationalities. There are some exceptions, tough.

For example if both your parents are German and spend a year in the US and get a baby there, the baby gets German and American nationality (if the parents wish so)

I don't really hate the U.S. I just dislike people who glorify war, obsess over guns and freedom and promote mass-consumerism. Just so happens that people like that are given a lot of floorspace in the U.S., so I may be more judgemental when an American talks about these things than when someone from elsewhere does. My sister once said that out of all the groups and cultures we are exposed to as Swedes, Americans are probably the ones we are most prejudiced against. I believe that is true.

America doesn't promote war, or obsess over guns. America seem to always be at war because America cant sit back and watch the bad guy win. That is why America is currently at war in Afghanistan. Because they acted in self defense from the 9/11 attack. America also is going through a conflict of interest in its self right now about stricter gun control laws. So the "obsessing" is because America's constitution has the right to bear arms. Just info for future use.

America spent 683.7 billion in 2011 on its military budget. Which includes the defense of its allies. When America asked countries to chip in to defense due to the cost most declined, however Japan and South Korea agreed and started to fund their own defense force. After which America really just quit caring about Europe. The point being is we fund Europe extensively for its protection and they don't. In addition to American troops deployed throughout the world America has given 22% of the UN budget for 2013, and has given extensively to the UN since its founding.

that is probably because europe does not need a giant military complex to defend itself. in opposition to the eastasians, the europeans own nuclear weapons. in addition to that russian-european relations are actually quite good. no side can afford going into war with the other one or even afford risking a bigger crisis.
In short: The Europeans actually just need the nuclear potential and interventionforces for ressourceconflicts.
They do not need a big budget. And consider the following: When the US says Germany needs to spend bigtime on the military, it means that germany should be part of military operations fueling american interest. if germany would arm up without doing that in this context, its allies would go crazy.

yes exactly. it is only because no one else wants. that is why the US keeps up military bases that were established in the second world war, still keeps germanys gold close-by, actually broadens it miliatary presence around the globe, especially in areas with important ressources.

That is true, but we have to do it. The situation will only get worse if we keep at what we are doing. We dug a hole, and now we have to face the repercussions. I know the if the US were to pull out of the world a political crisis would take over causing all sorts of problems between countries, but if that happens and we just accept to sit idly by then the rest of the world will have to learn how to take action. The US has been babying other countries for too long.

The sad thing is Britain and America are just as bad as each other. When the Scottish referendum comes round I'm voting for independence, not because I think Scotland will grow and prosper, but because I think its only a matter of time before the British politicians destroy what is left of a once great nation, all in the name of self greed. I would rather go down as an independent country, sitting on a thrown of lies that I created with a little national respect rather than being drowned in a sea of **** created by the privately educated, born with a silver spoon in their mouth, sorry excuse for politicians...

"Analysis published today will say Scottish revenues outstripped the rest of the UK in each of the past 30 years when a geographic share of North Sea revenue is included.

Tax revenue was £56.9 billion in the last year, equivalent to £10,700 per person in Scotland and compared with £9000 per person for the UK as a whole, according to the new figures." -The Herald (11 April 2013)

"Scotland provided 9.4% of total UK revenues and got 'only' 9.2% of UK public spending in return." -BBC news (9 January 2012)

We would happily stop leeching of England, we would be better off for it

Short of resorting to nuclear weapons, Russia would be ****** if it declared war on Europe. Hell, I'd encourage it, then Europe could take some of its land. Even a small fraction of Russian land would triple the size of Europe.
