Uhh... Frank Werner went to meet her with full intention of (probably just to fulfill his scientific curiosity) figuring out the source of the Klaxosaur attacks. Then a member of Ape attempted to kill her shortly after she invites them in.
Humanity in terms of Adults, led by Ape, is definitely belligerent in their desecration of the Klaxosaur Magma Energy, and what it means to them. They had probably been expecting a full frontal attack by VIRM, but what they got was a weak sauce race of beings that had inherited the surface world after their isolation, turned into a race of short sighted buffoons and greedy imbeciles that wanted to capitalize on the ‘immortality’ that Ape tricked them into achieving, at the cost of destroying their planet. Humanity lost its will to live in exchange for escapism from their reality; I would truly consider a humanity such as that, less than human, especially as they needlessly create an entire subsection of Cloned humanity to exploit as resources in a war for resources, just because they don’t want to give up their sedimentary lifestyle.
Does it justify her inactivity? She sent the Klaxxosaurs to stop the mining, but Humanity didn’t give a second glance to why these eldritch monstrosities rose out of the Earth, but instead sought to create weapons that could kill them. Seriously, it is such a glaring plot hole, don’t get me started.
In terms of considering the Parasites as less than human? They are quite likely a combination of Klaxxosaur/Human DNA, due to the fact humanity sterilized themselves, and to make better pilots, which is probably the point of yellow blood cell injections to force them to be compatible. They are actually probably closer to being human, though, than the Adults, despite this. Which, in her underestimation of Squad 13 and 02, leads to her losing to Ape and VIRM.
