The problem with aliens is that there are a lot of variables people flat out fucking ignore that would help answer the damn question.

>For one, do aliens have the same starting or different starting resources as we humans? >Have these aliens gone through successes and mistakes that would impact them on a mental and/or biological level(ex:warfare, drugs, breeding, etc...)?
>How would we even be able to communicate with said beings assuming universal ques only extend to humans.
>If we can't even coherently communicate with animals which are about as close as we have to aliens now, how would we communicate with anything else remotely intelligent.
>Would the concept of death and culture apply to aliens as well, and if so, how evolutionarily would alien's manage to overcome the #1 terminator of life?
>What environments lead to the conception of said intelligent life?

Why do we assume alien life is more intelligent than us to begin with? We can confirm microbes in space yes, but under what circumstances do those microbes become anything more than microbes, and where did said microbes originate? Every time the concept of alien's comes up, we project our own fucking aspirations on the concept in hopes we're not the best this universe has to offer...

How do we not know that every sighting of aliens we've seen is not just some elaborate secret government program in which specially trained pilots fly advanced airfare breakthroughs under the guise of an orchestrated boogieman and carry out, in specially trained uniforms, activities that would ordinarily be illegal on a federal level in the name of science including but not limited to, abduction, human experimentation, surveillance, psy-ops, social engineering, and other activities in the name of military progress?

Why do so many people discount psychedelics?

Either they're "just drugs", or they are without a doubt the most profound and culturally significant pharmacological discovery ever. I don't know which one but I'm inclined to go with the latter.

These abstract modes of consciousness legitimately exist in this universe - they are REAL. Ignore the cultural bias of the association between psychedelics and hippy nonsense like astrology and religion. The psychedelic state of mine is real and it exists.
