Brilliantly done, Harry! I had recently read about this bird conspiracy theory and if indeed Mr. "Tarlson" or is it Liarson on Jackal News covered it, I bet he neglected to mention that it was a made up prank by a millennial who continues to enjoy the fame his conspiracy gave him.
Yours was the only one that made me laugh. Hope you win!!

When you think of standing up for the truth of a fact, or of what's really right in the world, you have to think of it as standing up for yourself. Follow me with these comments.....if others believe falsity, it impacts us because those people accept a false reality, and live according to that unreality, essentially bringing false ways of living into reality and making it "unreal". per Internet

"Clucker" Tarlson, Cillary Hinton; classic. I really like Tucker but a joke is a joke, right? Cillary was already a joke so that one didn't count.

"Standing Stone?" Great imagination you have there.

Actually, this scenario almost sounds plausible, scary but possible.

Fun read, thanks.

"Seeking Truth" attempts to be a satire mocking the preposterous claims that are made by some conspiracy theorists. However, the writer doesn't have a clear position regarding the details under consideration, and the effort to build a ridiculous story out of some contrast between the insane synthetic birds theory and some obviously real evidence fails to consistently make the telling, exaggerated comparisons that often make a satire work. A rewrite and a critical review by an English teacher would probably help.

Your article takes imagination to a whole new level! I agree that you cannot believe everything you hear - especially on the news. However, reasonable people should be reasonable.

HT,

hahahahaha!!! This was so much fun! I'm very, very, very sorry that you haven't promoted it so that others will not get to read it. It's just so frustrating though, that you've so cleverly disguised all the names. I would be interested in knowing who all those folks are, but I cannot -- for the life of me - decipher your very clever code. Have you, by chance, worked for the CIA or FBI before??? Hmmm... I feeeeel like I should be able to do this. Like the names are right there... on the tip of my tongue... --sigh-- But no.

I just don't have a clue!

What a lot of fun! Thanks and good luck!

Hello!

This is such a fun read. It is funny because some people truly do believe that birds are not real. I recently just got myself a pet Cockatiel. His name is Keiko and he is my baby. He is very sweet and smart! Thank you for sharing.

One Love
Haylee

    Have fun with your real bird. I'm sure you checked him out for eye cameras and hidden mikes. Thanks for the read and the review.

This was amusing. I hope you intended it to be this way. I can't imagine mechanical birds. LOL. Thank you for sharing this here, and best wishes to you.
