... I've seen that question brought up by younger ufologists a few times. They look at the world and claim there are no benevolent ETs, or no benevolent parallel civilizations, because
"If they existed, they'd come and help us."
People often take starvation/cancer as an example. If there are benevolent civilizations on this Earth, why are they watching us die?
I wanted to know what other people's thoughts on the subject were.
Good topic/questions, let's use an analogy:
If you saw a colony of ants that appeared sick and dying, for whatever reason (maybe the kid next door poured hot water on them an hour before, for example...who knows when an ant is sick, right?), would you spend a lot of time trying to figure out what's wrong with them and nursing them back to health?
If I could take 5 minutes out of my day to fix the ant farm, I would. Maybe half an hour on a Sunday. I wouldn't hold a state funeral for every ant, but I could use my skill to fix the farm, and move some of the broken walls back.
I would also Google how to make an ant farm:

And make some extra capsules out of soda bottles. With 2 hours work, I could move their civilization forward 1000 ant years. I'd also leave out honey every day. That only takes 30 seconds. Next I would tell my neighbours kid that I would kick his ass if he ever did that in my garden again, and ask his parents to make sure he never does that.
Voila. The non-intervention treaty is now operational.
