ITT: We discuss Fermi paradox

Space isn't just radiation a ship like this is a well prepared Petri dish just waiting for a small mutation of some microscopic menace to kill everyone on-board.

Maybe our species deserves to die out on this rock after all

There is no reason to think a spaceship would vulnerable to infections.

Any civilization that has the technology to attempt such voyages will certainly not be stopped by this. Try again.

In 50k years it's not an improbable assumption that we'll perfect fusion energy. Taking a fuckton of hydrogen with you would solve pretty much all energy needs and you can create some spare materials while you're at it. Do you really think a ship that's, say, 50% hydrogen in mass wouldn't be able to sustain itself for a thousand years or so with fusion?
Or perhaps energy storage technologies may propose something revolutionary. We're talking about timescales in which a hundred thousand years more of technological development is hardly significant.

Are your friends (if any) this retarded? Some downie group?

Because it is science fiction.
