I fucking love self-replying, even if it's just a script.

I think from an evolutionary perspective other intelligent species would have to have developed similarly

Societies could have only developed from intelligent lifeforms coexisting in close proximity well enough to grow, advance technology and not blow each other up. Thus the traits for more calm, peaceful intelligence would be passed on for not getting into fights and shit over time. I guess that and caring for your mate, young, family too.

Does it not make sense that they would have similar interests as a result of needing to survive on their planet in close proximity to their own species?

Do you think life everywhere has to follow the same coexisting path for intelligence to prevail over other evolutionary advantages?

Is there a way for life to evolve intelligence in a more malicious way and to prevail long enough to become a space-faring species?

I think I'm just rambling now.
