Let's take a look at some consequences of man stepping upon distant lands:
- Slavery
- Smallpox
- The Trail of Tears
- Imperialism
- The White Man's Burden
- Apartheid
- Stolen Generation
I'd say citizens of distant galaxies have more reason to fear us.
Of course, I'm not insinuating that people would want to do something like that. However, I don't think anyone intended for the above to happen either when they set about their journeys. People aren't born evil; they become evil through power-driven ideas, propaganda they tell themselves, and the propaganda they spread to others.
