That is incredibly closed minded. Just look at the underground portions of the moon with nurseries for example (check the grimoire). Why would we care that wizards are female? Why would we care about male or female vandals (Check the grimoire- cayde reminisces). To say that everything that is here after our Dark Ages are invaders is a little too simplistic. We don't know how long the Golden age or the Dark Age was. For all we know they were hundreds of years each.

You can't "invade" a system that is all but abandoned with scarcely any life. What little life that was left was uncivilized (see the cards about the fiefdoms, etc.) IF they attacked during the height of our golden age I could understand that terminology, but we don't know if they were the collapse (unlikely) or if they came afterwards to pick the bones of the dying carcass that was humanities greatness (see the cards on the fallen).

The lack of life doesn't mean much either considering these races could've been hit by the darkness as well but with their greater experience in technology and advancement they simply faired better than humanity (who was obviously less prepared, only getting the advances from he Traveler relatively recently at the time).

Don't think we should make such left-or-right assumptions so easily.
