They might want the resources of earth.
There is also a chance they might want to hunt and/or rape us for the fun of it.

If we ever get invaded by aliens, we’ll just be their lab rats. They won’t enslave us, because not efficient. They ain’t here for our resources, that’s the lamest thing to do. They ain’t coming here to erase us from existence, because the universe is mostly void, so our existence doesn’t matter to them, we occupy insignificant space in that.

Nothing material on earth you can’t find everywhere else, the only things we have that aren’t incredibly plentiful elsewhere are earths unique biology and human culture. Both of which can also be obtained without us ever knowing about it. The only logical reason to invade is ideological so if we ever meet hostile aliens they’re either genocidal zealots or a bunch of sadists.

Lots of assumptions there, let’s hope if it ever happens that they are less douchebags that we are
