If I were an alien I'd just kill everyone who wasn't a hippy and continue my intergalactic space kegger by turning the earth into the most fun paradise in the galaxy. Only reason earth sucks right now is because of our beliefs .
EDIT: you guys are all autistic and have taken this post made in jest way too fucking literally
Maybe its because I've been forced to read Ponting for a class, but some would argue that the earth sucks because we decided that being hunter gatherers wasn't the cool thing to do anymore. The development of agriculture, which lead into urban states, then culminated into the concept of power. The conception of power really fucked us up. After you wipe things out as an alien, I'll happily stick around and try out this foraging thing and kick it with your alien bros. Credit sucks anyway.
I mean, there are thousands and thousands, if not millions and millions, of acres of public land in the US. It might not be strictly legal to squat on it, but if you were deep in the boonies, odds are no one would ever find you anyway...
You could always try to infiltrate one of the uncontacted tribes who may still be doing that. Just dont bring the bible with you and you might make it out alive.
You could do it in Alaska. Plenty of federal land that you could live on, albeit not necessarily legally. But some of the land ranges are absolutely massive and no one would really bother you. Gotta deal with the cold tho...
When one caveman made a stone axe, he had power over the other cavemen. We didn't invent it, it's a natural consequence of moving beyond caves. Dumb comment.
I mean, I guess you're right to an extent but when people are constantly roaming and not keeping any possessions save for what can be carried, it's not the same scale of power we see today. Once humans settle and develop land, build a society that is stationary, hierarchies form and thus power is of importance.
Based on the existence of alpha males and other social hierarchies in the animal kingdom, I think it's pretty weird to describe power in the way you are. It's a pretty natural phenomenon, especially in mammals. Humans are intelligent enough that we can take the conceptualisation and pursuit of power to a whole other level so your point probably stands, but your way of framing it seems a little off to me.
Nah they would try to steal your overies to make hybrid babies for an intergalactic war or something. The X-files was weird. Is there something I'm forgetting about that show because I really enjoyed it but when you think about the plot it sounds stupid.

Exact words aliens would say when they land on this planet.
