[ WP ] A sci-fi story where humanity are the monsters .

They are a plague and they will destroy everything. There's hardly anyone left on my world, everyone I know, or knew, is dead now. I'm sending this message out as a warning to anyone who is unfortunate enough to encounter these creatures and to hopefully keep you from repeating the same fatal mistakes we made. 
 
 They call themselves the Human race. Strange creatures. Had a kind of pinkish to brown color with variations in-between. That seemed to matter to them. Their color. It was important to them. I do n't get it. Their color was the result of forces beyond their control, decided before birth. So why bother making these distinctions? Anyway, the humans had four limbs. Two on top ( arms ) and they stood on the other two ( legs ) with one head in-between the arms. Just two sexes. Men and Women. It would appear that this mattered to them as well. The men felt that women were an inferior gender and would not allow many into the higher levels of society. Like I said: strange creatures. But these `` men'', they are the ones to fear. Not all of them but enough of them can do untold amounts of damage. They are responsible for pretty much the entirety of the terrible things following this corrupted organism. 
 
 The humans were friendly at first, well, they never really stopped being somewhat friendly. They have that going for them. Most of them are just trying to live a life with some meaning and comfort. Are n't we all? I liked them, mostly. I had human friends. They had positive qualities. Their music was great. A lot of them had a sense of humor that was contagious. The food was an acquired taste but there was so much diversity that you could find something that you loved. Yellow rice. Wow. Probably my favorite of all human dishes. However, it was their unquenchable appetite for resources that made them dangerous. So very dangerous. 
 
 These humans have left a scar across the galaxy since they gained space travel. Planet hopping, depleting all of the natural resources from every stop. Barren planets are all that is left in their wake. We thought we could help them learn a different way. But they took our lessons and perverted them. Morphed our new ideas to serve the few and not the whole. We should have turned them away immediately but we did n't. We brought them in and tried to integrate the humans into our culture. They were a time bomb. 
 
 It was about sixty years after we made contact. The humans had overstayed their welcome. The planet could no longer support both of us. Only the humans had viable space travel so it seemed obvious that they would have to leave and they eventually did, but not after every last drop of useful material had been squeezed from my home. As the end rapidly approached the humans began fighting amongst themselves. It is impossible to find words that could accurately describe the carnage. Entire cities gone in the blink of an eye. A planet that may never sustain life again. A complete disregard for any collateral damage. I'm sorry but why would anyone ever build a thing capable of that? It only holds people hostage to annihilation. We were prisoners on our own home. 
 
 They are the Devil incarnate. I mean that. The devil is a likable person. He has charm and you're drawn to him. He is also capable of an evil that is incomprehensible. We saw the human race's true face too late, far far too late.
