UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.
A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: βDue to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.β

All the aliens left behind when Christopher Johnson and its child escaped with the ship might have been wiped out, but I'm sure someone made the case that it would go very badly for humanity when the aliens returned looking for their people.

The nanofluid granted Christopher Johnson access to the ship's systems. When Wickus got sprayed with it, the fluid entered his system and started to "repair" him which meant turning him into a physical copy of Christopher Johnson.
That's how Wickus was able to access the alien technology.

There were only two green, the one to whom the humans assigned the name "Christopher Johnson" and its offspring. They were the only members of the "leader" caste.
People think the nanofluid created by Christopher Johnson was supposed to be fuel, but it was really more like a security card.

A lot of people didn't understand that movie. They thought the aliens were basically humans but bugs.
But they were a hive, not individuals. Most of them were docile obedient workers. The red-striped & yellow-striped ones were soldiers, much larger and more aggressive, but leaderless.

It's a perverse evil variation of the "I can change them" mindset.
Whereas some people think they can make a horrible person better, some want to make a perfectly good person dull and miserable.
I think it's also jealousy.

This was 2 weeks after Elon took over.
I had made that same joke many times before and it was rarely reported.
When it was, the worst that happened was I would get suspended until I deleted the offending post.

A gun nut challenged me to "come and take" his semi-auto guns when I called for a ban. I told him we could just bulldoze his house with him and the guns in it.
