Birds are racist now. The march towards todayism continues. They don't even say what the new names replacing them are. But they say they'll be taking public input. That'll stop the very second it starts.

World on brink of suffering a nuclear apocalypse, critical infrastructure failing and violent criminals run rampant on the streets..

The left: "I want to rename this bird because the name makes me feel bad"

......I'm going to live on a mountain, hope these fucks are just outside the blast radius so they die of slow radiation poisoning.

Full Cultural Revolution lunacy.

The more hysteria I see like this the more convinced I become that the appropriate response is physical intervention.

Even if it would, we shouldn't want Jamal working in the sciences if he wasn't already interested. This is how we get the competency crisis.

The committee also proposes to change names considered derogatory or culturally inappropriate for three other birds: the flesh-footed shearwater; Eskimo curlew, and Inca dove

I thought Clown World couldn't get more retarded, but it keeps happening.

In 2018, college student Robert Driver proposed renaming McKown's longspur... named for John P. McKown, who first collected a specimen of the species in 1851...before he fought in the Seminole Indian War... participated in an expedition against Mormons in Utah ... and before he became a general in the Confederate Army in 1861

Oh look, more attempts at White history erasure.

Driver's renaming proposal was rejected, to the dismay of many birders

Weasel words

On the bright side, they'll have to spend a lot of effort to find and burn all the old taxonomy books

Imagine thinking that the "expedition against Mormons" is even worth mentioning. Don't pretend you give a shit about religious freedom, or Mormons in particular you lying scumsack.

Black birds travel in packs, perch where they aren't wanted, make a ton of noise, and shit on everything. Why were they named black birds again?

They're just going to Year Zero everything and there's nothing you can do to stop it besides hoard things they can't erase.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

'In 2020, following the death of George Floyd, the American Ornithological Society received a petition from the Bird Names For Bird's group, which emphasized that these names served as "isolating and demeaning reminders of oppression, slavery, and genocide."'

Insanity has reached a new level.

I'm stick and tired of pathetic creatures trying to tear down the legacy of great men to satisfy a distorted and twisted minority.

Guess I need to invest in some historical taxonomy books for future reference.

These new names are going to be banned as woke drivel, and everyone responsible is to be executed for treason.
