@@SilvertortoisePiano I realize this might be too nuanced for the the uneducated, but time is real. What is fake is the totally arbitrary scale we use to measure it based on totally random and variable things like the earth’s rotation and the orbits of the moon around the earth and the earth around the sun. Have you ever wondered about leap years? Daylight savings time? The age of consent? Why aren’t months all an equal number of days? Why is a week seven days? Why are there four seasons and not ten or eleven? It’s all totally random! Einstein proved it!

Yeah, but I can't imagine they're widely used, or deployed over any great distance. There's also pretty successful research into using live beetles with cameras and wires in their nervous systems to control their flight. But they're unreliable and super expensive, probably only used for very specific high value surveillance. Very little reason to send expensive and high risk toys out to watch normal citizens who happily broadcast everything they do through their phones already.

Big waste of time, but maybe there is more to it? Like for us to automatically assume that a "conspirationist" believes in flat heart, and spying birds. So, we should be good cows and listen what officials and their TV propaganda are saying because they are good human beings.. Everything has been done on this earth, every evil things that you can think of, it has been done and even worse than that. Satanists are real, drugs are real, killers and rapists are real, business men and politicians seeking only profits are real. Conspiracy means nothing nowadays everyone is lying, especially those that qualifies anything that bothers them as such.

They aren't hurting anything or anyone, the founder uses the movement as a way to deal with his trauma, it's satire and it truly exemplifies what I always say...'it takes all types to make a village.' I don't believe birds are drones but I have my serious suspicions about seagulls, male peacocks and mockingbirds. Especially mockers. Anything that sits outside your bedroom window all night and sings car alarm songs has an alternate agenda.
