Any civilization able to get to us, would be advanced enough that a carrier task group bombing the uncontacted people of the north sentinel islands would be a fair fight in comparison.
We would see a blur in our telescopes followed by death or whatever they want to do to us.

You're absolutely right. I was describing the hypothetical scenario where the aliens just want to fuck with us by blowing up the sun or something. If they wanted us dead it would be lights out before we know they were there.

There are so many nightmare situations you can imagine.

A single missile loaded up with a highly contagious 100% fatal pathogen, use drones with infrared to pick off the remaining hermits.

Just drones. Self-replicating killing machines that know all the human tricks.

Neutrino bombs, a few million of them.

A horrible digging machine just digs and releases all that poisons stuff from under us. We all suffocate.

Sunblocker, apply for 30 years. The few remaining humans living in cannibalism around geothermal vents get nuked from orbit.

Giant space mirrors. Fry us.

Bioweapons which specifically target or exclude a certain genetic profile. The dark side of gene therapy.

or whatever they want to do to us.

Anal probing, most likely.

Poor aliens just think our ass is the mouth. Where they come from bipeds are assmouth to assface
