Posadism attempts to introduce elements of ufology into Marxist thought. Arguing that only communism can allow the development of interplanetary travel, they concluded that visiting aliens from other planets must live in highly advanced communist societies and are bound to help Earth-based communists with bringing about the world revolution.
Posadists also believe that humanity needs to respect and communicate with other intelligent species of our own planet if we are to be worthy of contact by the "space comrades". Basically humanity needs to sort out its problems at a planetary scale first.

My head says I'm a socialist. My heart says I'm a transhumanist.
