    Even better if the aliens have no concept of a serial killer so they have no frame of reference for the horror they have brought upon themselves.

      They conclude it is normal human behavior and decide to leave us the fuck alone, like we do with the sentinel islands.

        No, they threaten to kill all of us unless we change. Then we are given 6 months to find and kill every serial killer on the planet and they give us the technology to instantly detect serial killers but it turns out the device detects potential serial killers as well and it’s flagging multiple politicians, celebrities, nobel laureates and even children.

      Or death isn’t even an inconvenience for them. They’re a hive mind and losing one loses nothing. He gets no joy from it and they are but mildly annoyed.
