What do you think the solution to the Fermi Paradox is?
	No other civilizations exist OP, it's just us
	Destroying ourselves is just what intelligent life does. I for one can't wait for our destruction
	Maybe they all died out from asteroids or supernovas or whatever, idgaf
	Aliens are gonna nuke the gently caress out of us OP and I'm going to laugh, because thats crazy
	They're just too far away dude calm down
	Maybe its just too boring to bother traveling or producing machines to go that distance, did you think of that??
	I think we just aren't listening to the right kind of signals, maaan
	they're too busy on space BYOB / virtual reality
	I think they're too busy smoking weed
	I think the earth is deliberately held back from contact like a fancy planetary zoo
	the government actually hides evidence of the aliens; haven't you heard of roswell OP?
	i think they are here already but just unobserved; the technology to hide would be nothing to an entity capable of interstellar travel
	i think God kills them before they get too close to talking to humans, the chosen species of God
	its too dangerous to communicate, look at first contact with other civilizations on a planetary scale it never ended awesomely
	they are just too alien. we can't communicate, understand, or even begin to phantom what sort of methods they'd have to talk. they could live their lives out in time measured in space instead of the way we normally think of it and insane poo poo like that
