    The problem I have with the whole “birds aren’t real” thing is that bird-drones are expensive, very expensive. Think about all the “birds” you’ve ever seen over the course of your whole entire life. Think about how much it would cost to build and maintain that. I’d hate to see the bill.

    Bird Law: No matter how crazy your conspiracy theory is, someone is actively working to make it a reality.

    As a founding member of the organization Birds Were Real, I resent this conflation of reality. Clearly this is evidence that birds were at some point real but now are not, Birds Aren’t Real is trying to spread propaganda to push a narrative that is factually wrong.

    Clearly birds existed at some point, the fossil record is clear, its just there is zero evidence that there are any living birds left among the cohort scientists claim as “birds”. It seems like every other week news comes out about how some flying creature that scientists were previously totally confident was in the bird family is actually a totally different unrelated animal like a bat or a cricket or a flying squirrel.

    The Birds Aren’t Real people are absolute nutjobs, they deny the reality of the fossil record right in front of their very eyes, as hard as it is to believe for some, birds did exist at some point in Earth’s history.

        I mean it’s compelling evidence but frankly you are going to need to provide a lot more cross substantiating backup evidence to prove such bold claims.

        This isn’t a smoking gun like the infamous Nessie Photo that proved the existence of modern subfjord lava cave Plesiosaurs, and y’all think that just providing this one picture proves it all….
