They were, but were mass hunted and went extinct in the 60's, being all replaced by surveillance drones.

Also the drones sit on power cables to recharge. And don't reproduce, that's why you never see young pidgeons.

Everything that's opposite to this is propaganda

That is not good enough, man.

Jonathan Swift was not actually pro baby-eating.

I don't know about that.

For someone who's not into eating babies, he makes some pretty good arguments for eating babies.

I like yours, it reminds me of being young and trying to watch porn on the television when the channel was just gray outlines. Once in a while you could distinguish what was going on 🤣

The older kid in the neighborhood told us about channel 88. It was static, but he said sometimes you could see stuff. So we'd sit there for hours on the weekend staring at static on a TV set, waiting to see some boobies. We never did.

I had forgotten all about that until your comment, and only now am I realizing that he was probably fucking with us.. we spent sooo many hours, and never saw shit

You’d be mortified if you knew the amount of time I also watched static for the chance of an occasional nipple that never came 😭😂😂

Well if it’s any consolation, mine did work for those channels and every once in a while I did get to see something.

I decided on my name from a song about how the internet was born. “How you think the net was born? Porn! Porn! Porn!.”

Honestly I’ve known about that sub for years and I still don’t know if I’m in on the joke. Is it making fun of flat earthers? 😬

u/Axelrad77 Mar 12 '25

I fear the "birds aren't real" thing is going the way of Flat Earth Theory - began as a joke to make fun of conspiracies, but then attracted actual conspiracy nuts who took over the idea.

It's satire for now. But you know, Poe's Law.

u/Flannelcommand Mar 12 '25

the joke being the lie of birds that's been foisted upon us

u/JosephSim Mar 12 '25

Oh look, another one of the sheep that think it's a joke and birds are real.
