They used to be. Until the U.S. Government replaced them with identical drone replicas designed to spy on the American public. Founded in 1976.

BIRD TRUTHERS WILL NEVER BE SILENT. THE U.S. GOVERNMENT REPLACED OUR FEATHERED FRIENDS WITH BIRD-DRONE REPLICAS TO SPY ON US ALL. THEY CANNOT STOP US. WE SEE THROUGH THEIR LIES.
To those negatively chirping: quiet. 🤫 It will all work out well in the end - it always does.

The surveillance state has expanded more than we ever imagined. Tech has gone beyond bird drone replacement & entered mosquito scale! The songs & calls of life have been cruelly replaced by artificial sounds to fill the air, keeping us occupied so we don’t ask the real questions

Lots of folks have been sending videos of bird drone replicas to us that our team has determined sadly are ai generated. Birds have been replaced by drone lookalikes, but we refuse to share false images as we @birdsarentreal stand with our bird truthers & against generative ai.

To be clear: we encourage you to send videos, pics & even drawings depicting the truth that the U.S. government has replaced existing avian species with camouflaged surveillance drone tech. We’ve no need for artificial intelligence, because our followers are already intelligent!

It is not that we believe birds have never been real. It is that the U.S. government has systematically conducted a bird genocide & replaced all avian species with a bird-drone replica to spy on us. Though this was a U.S. project, some claim Canada corroborated in this project

Notice how freely your leaders want you dead. They were willing to replace every single bird with a drone replica just to spy on you, they are more than willing to massacre you for their own ends

The overgrown homunculus in the White House is trying to silence us. We won’t back down. They may have taken away our birds, they may have taken away our privacy, but they can never take our

Hi @elonmusk… since you are having a falling out with DJT, any interest in aiding our mission to expose the lies of the U.S. government & free ourselves from their mass surveillance programs? 👉👈🥺

There are forces in our government who seek to expand the already overinflated U.S. surveillance state. We cannot allow this, they have already stolen so much from us. Most of us already have cameras on us at all times, yet they still want more….

We @birdsarentreal are not asking our members to trust our government, which has spent decades systematically replaces our avian friends with drone replicas meant to spy on us. But trust we have your best interests at heart & that we will fight for & deliver you the honest truth.

While this may look concerning, upon researching we’ve found that the U.S. remains the most sophisticated developers of bird drone technologies. China is merely reacting to the U.S.-backed avian genocide, attempting to surveil while replacing their own diminished bird populations

We appreciate our many bird truthers who have shared this report with us over the last few months & we ask you to remain vigilant as more governments take to replacing their native species with mass surveillance technologies. This started with the U.S. but it’s gone worldwide!

CORRECTION: Y’all, we are so sorry. It turns out Peter is not alive, we received incorrect information earlier and got too excited. So sorry for the confusion. We will leave the other post up in the interest of full transparency.
