Humanity Fuck Yeah
"We poison our air and water to weed out the weak! We set off fission bombs in our only biosphere! We nailed our God to a stick! Don't fuck with the human race!"
Out of all threads that appear at the /tg/, it is this kind of threads that hold that one special place in the hearts of fa/tg/uys. It shows humanity for what it really is: a savage bunch of hairless apes with machines that rapes the planet, leave it drained and dead, so it could just move to rape other planets as well.
Many glorious hours of dedicated hard work were given to these threads, making some of the finest lines which would make any xeno race run to the edge of the known universe, even if said xeno race was still in the stone age. Reasons why humans are such a threat to the rest of the galaxy are various, but a good deal can be summed up in the following list:
- Our evolution - We evolved and THRIVED in African savannah, a place where everything is trying to KILL YOU! ALL THE TIME! Aliens usually evolved on some herbivore world or become less "on their guard" due to centuries of living away from nature, not troubled by survival.
- Our warfare - Humans have been at war which other basically even before they made stone axes. And we got better over time. You think proud warrior races have shit on us? Spartan training they undergo makes only a handful of survivors. No matter how they are good, we'll just drown them in conscripts.
- Our bodies - The very biology that makes us humans can be terrifying from viewpoint of other races. The chemical reactions that fuel our body are pretty powerful, relatively speaking. Even compared to local fauna, some of us can take amount of drugs and booze that would probably kill a decently sized buffalo herd. And even if you take most fat, most lazy members of our kind, with couple months of good boot camp, you'll still get a killing machine as a result.
- Our mind - Most terrifying aspect of us would probably be our brains. What we can come up with scares shit even of ourselves. Think M.A.D. for example. Which reasonable mind would, on any other planet in the galaxy, EVEN THINK that having enough nuclear firepower to destroy your only planet twenty times over, would be a guarantee of peace?
As you can see there is pretty lot of material to roll around in this kind of threads. Humans may not be as powerful sometimes, just a serious player in the galaxy trough economic superiority or science, but that's not the real "Humanity Fuck Yeah" thread. The real deal is us having our way with the galaxy as we see fit. Murdering billions of xenos, taking their hot alien babes, mining their planets to the core and moving on, leaving nothing but dead rocks in our wake. We march on, our mantra singing trough the stars:
GENOCIDE! MINING! GENOCIDE! MINING! GENOCIDE! MINING!
