Then when they realize what they've done, they say, "Oh shit, sorry! We didn't realize you were intelligent", and they gives us their cool technology. They make us part of the Galactic Federation, and we all get equal rights to the aliens.
That would be cool, right?
Sure, we'd be pissy that they killed us for a bit, but it worked out in the end. We're better off. We got awesome transportation tech, star ships, longer life spans, tech to feed the hungry, medicine to heal the sick, etc -- a massive improvement to quality of life.
"Fuck those aliens" or "That sucked for a bit, but thanks for the star ships, advanced medicine, and future agriculture tech"?

I think a good alien induced culling of the human race would be a good thing. Our population is vast, and we show no signs of wanting to slow our destruction of the planet Earth.
In fact, I think the only thing that can help us at this point is some galactic intervention.
Whether that be a meteor crashing into Earth or aliens that decide to make Earth a hunting ground, I honestly feel we need outside help to make things right again on Earth.
