Assume you were a species capable of dimensional travel, or at the very least interstellar travel.
Assume also that this ability came from several thousands of years of development technologically. Economics and spirituality are NOT assumed to exist on your world, though they might.
Do not assume your species endured the same trials and tribulations that us humans have endured on account of our vices.
Now assume you've been here, to Earth. You've been coming here for a while, actually, and you see what's going on globally.. famine, war, toxic chemicals in the earth's water and soil.
My questions are these:
Why would you opt to keep your presence or visitation unknown?
Why would you opt to not to teach another species how to become victorious over their trivial matters?
Is there any point, including global annihilation, that you would intervene? What are the possible opinions an advanced civilization would have on us and our future? And would that position be a prerogative of your species acting alone or in diplomatic agreements?
