The idea that hyper sophisticated alien societies will all naturally build a fantastically complex object that a futurist ape dreamed up before our planet had even travelled to the moon is the height of hubris.
A dyson swarm can be possible theoretically and a civilisation can potentially build a swarm with enough technological prowess. It’s just Solar Energy so it’s likely that other civilisations also have same ideas as humans when it comes to this.
Although the most likely explanation is still that it’s just dust.
We have literally no idea what an alien society is likely to do.
Just because the dominant ideology of Dyson’s time was a valorization of unquenchable resource extraction doesn’t mean it’s at all logical to project that value structure even on different human societies, much less literally alien ones.
If alien civilizations capable of building megastructures are discovered shortly, the last thing I’m gonna be worried about is looking stupid for doubting their discovery as reported in sensationalist media lol
The Dyson Sphere thing might be real, though it’s far from confirmed.
Like basically anything might be real
No they found like fifty weird stars or something

A star with orbiting solar panels is an idea so poisoned by the current level of human technological development.
Like trying to detect radio emissions to find extraterrestrial life.

Space communists please liberate us.
Turns out those 50 weird stars are Red stars
I firmly believe capitalism is incapable of creating Dyson Spheres.
were the yankees looking at their stupid fuckin flag or something
you guys will look so stupid if it turns out they’re dyson spheres
They won’t tho

edit: that said,
aliens would never use such an overpriced vacuum brand they’re probably Hoover spheres
please let me know if this happens so I can cancel my plans
