What if, rather than man returning to the moon and establishing a base there, we discovered that another life form had beaten us to it?
What if Alien life visiting earth had a base that close?
How would that change our views on country level politics, defense of the planet, international/interstellar travel and trade?

I already don't care much about lines drawn on a map. This would make me care even less.

Eh. It might get some coverage in a single day’s news cycle, but that wouldn’t make the front page.

FIFY
Consider this...
In the mid 50's we engaged Russia on a races to the moon
In the mid 50's Uncle Milton (tm) started selling his Ant Farms

Somebody needs to pass a law making the Moon part of Merica. We got our flag there and all. Then we can build a wall.

We nuked the moon and it rang like a bell.

Bad idea
Aliens that have a base on the moon would kick our arse
It'd be like Alabama vs Birmingham Southern, except that Southern would have a better chance of winning

That's interesting, but not caring about them is silly.
They are the difference in your pot being legal or illegal.
They determine whether you can enjoy the fruits of your own labor, or be a slave to government or another man.
They determine whether your children go to, say, Prattville or Sidney Lanier.
They determine what taxes you will pay and when.
They dictate where and with whom you associate.
Simply walking across some can earn you many years in prison, while crossing others gives you instant access to a social welfare system that is more lucrative than a job on the side you came from.
They can even determine what you are allowed to speak or write.
Lines drawn on a map, and the people who set them, control damn near everything.

Yeah, but if one day you looked up at the moon that circles our planet and there was another species setting up camp there... would it matter? Gives a whole new perspective on whether the moon is "ours" or just another celestial body in the sky.
If it is "our property"... then whose? and is that even a legit way to think? The indians never understood why white men had this idea that you could own land. This is possibly similar.
Maybe the moon is Earths interplanetary bitch and some new guy is hittin it.

That's not exactly true. Indian tribes believed very strongly in communal land that was not shared with other native groups. Wars were often fought on this principle. Also, Indians who raised crops generally recognized individual property rights of a plot of land farmed by a specific family group. They were usually well defined.
Hunting lands among the Algonquins were similar. They passed down the family line through the males.
What they didn't understand is why Eurpoeans wanted to push them off of it and send them to Oklahoma.
