About
Aliens vs. the Indomitable Human Spirit, also known as We Were Born To Inherit the Stars, refers to a series of memes that imagine a battle or confrontation between aliens and humans in which the seemingly superior and technologically advanced alien is surprised by the "Indomitable Human Spirit." Aliens vs. humans powerscaling edits related to the Indomitable Human Spirit surfaced in 2023. However, the concept went largely viral in early 2024 via a slew of slow fade-in memes. Many of the videos used the song "Exit Music" by Radiohead.
