The problem isn’t that we pet birds, it’s that we eat them. Or more specifically we gather them in huge, unsanitary populations in close contact with humans as they are raised and slaughtered.
This reminds me of how people think AIDS spread from other primates through bestiality, when bushmeat was the correct answer. I guess it’s easier to imagine bestiality than the consequences of carnism.
*not vegan, Just finding it harder and harder to dismiss them.

It’s because we spread HIV within our own population more commonly with sex than cannibalism
But domesticated birds are not good carriers of influenza, specifically. Unlime wild birds, they do get sick. Otherwise, I totally agree.
What wild birds out there letting you pet them?
The elites don’t want you to know this but the ducks at the park are free you can take them home I have 458 ducks
It’s a shame passenger pigeon nets have fallen out of style. I imagine you could catch a lot of ducks with one of those
You got some bread? Then many.
That’s how you get bit by a duck
How about something more beginner friendly, like a goose or a swan?
Fucking goose
It’s fledgling season in the northern hemisphere, and lots of fledglings don’t naturally have a ton of fear of humans. Adult birds might also ‘let’ people pet them after a window strike; they don’t always look like a bloody mess so people don’t always realize how injured they are.
There are no wild birds, because there are no birds at all. You can pet the drone once the battery has run out
Usually the ones that let you approach are the sick or injured ones
Seen plenty on YouTube. Like crows.
Let’s just hope Randy Marsh doesn’t go fuck a pangolin again
Are you implying that pandemics are created by the government and spread by governmental drones?
They can be enemy drones, too.
Actually, foreign espionage is illegal so it cannot
When I’m talking about the government, I’m not talking about some shadow government like the Bundesregierung of German or the president of the US. I’m talking about the deep state government
Pandemic, you say?
Krieger! Not again!
Yeah but bird.
Isn’t the problem more that it’s now in cows and people in the US are refusing to stop buying it? Even worse, they are buying it on purpose?
I think there it’s more the
overuse of antibiotics to speed up growth. Idk, I just ripped the info from a lecture. xD
Does petting corpses then, by any chance, start a …
Depends. Did the corpse exhibit signs of motility?
Sir, please stay where you are. This is the SCP. Remain calm. You will be harmed. Not. Not be harmed.
Never heard of the SCP Foundation before … thanks!
*Stands still as a dead corpse*
Thanks! I was looking for the instructions on how to start a pandemic.
isn’t influenza the common cold, or am i stupid?
Here you go:
You’re not stupid, just incorrectly informed. And smart enough to question that. That makes you waaaay smarter than the average person.
Neither. Influenza is the flu. The common cold is caused by a variety of viruses, iirc.
That’s why I always give them a gentle smooch on the beak instead.
