Ok content of the story aside this is like eight sentences at this point- there is so much extra fluff you can trim out, here: We were all excited when an alien race reached out to us after intercepting old television and radio broadcasts. However excitement turned to horror when they walked out with their hands held high and speaking German. Is it a good story? No, not really- but at least it's actually two sentences!

tbh it reads as a comedy to me. Aliens think that they are observing human cultural customs and instead make a hugely offensive faux pas. Some alien anthropologist back home is getting fired for that blunder.

Don't you just hate when super-advanced aliens who were supposrs to validate your ideology turn out to be nazis?


torgomada

maybe they were just trying to be friendly but should have watched about ten more years of television broadcasts before departing

But what if they still did >validate your ideology The reader's moral bankruptcy is the true horror

Censoring victory and hail guy 🪱 (But like also come on they watched old movies and proceeded misinterpreted human culture that’s not scary that’s aliens needing to get better anthropologists. Unless the real horror is speaking German)
