because we know so much about alien civilizations
We don't know what they'd look like, but we do know if they have become a space fairing race what they use for energy. Its entire planets and stars. They have the most amount of matter and energy that can be exploited. So we look for stars and planets that seem to be oddly disprortionate in these levels of energy and hopefully find some struture they are using to siphon stars and planets.

Discovering life outside of earth in my lifetime would be sweet

That's asinine. How could we even comprehend advanced technology?
Just for the record, I don't think there are alien civilizations out there, and it's not because of the fermdi theory/paradox.
But if there were, how do you know they don't use gravity as an energy source? Antimatter?

There are people starving to death and living in card board boxes yet we're wasting money on this shite.

Well this would be a Type 2 Civilization, which really means only another Type 2 or 3 Civilization could wipe them out. I see no reason why this confirms the Fermi Paradox.

My problem with this line of thinking is that it's all based on earth and earth principles. And it's talking about things that we may not even be able to comprehend, yet here you are spouting off about Type 2 this or Type 3 that.
