    This is why we colonise space, at least the planets without aliens living there.

      Almost every colony ever: gets oppressed and exploited, fights for independence, gains sovereignty, becomes either a tense ally or a hostile rival to their former empire

      Earthlings: “maybe we should colonize space”

        So you want to send those undesireable people somewhere else? Maybe to conserve your way of living?

          If by undesirable you mean I desire instead to keep living, and by conserve my way of living you mean I just get to continue breathing - then yes. They try to kill me, there’s no moral limit on what I can rightfully do in return if they don’t succeed. Including rocket them off to planet conservative before they get another shot.
