I hope what you’re implying is that swan feathers are a suit made to deceive humans from their obvious lizard people pet agenda, and that Big Feather needs to be held accountable. I’ve already booked guests for the podcast and have 17 articles in my substack,

I want to see a Jurassic Park movie where it’s just geese and swans breaking out of captivity, and mildly annoying everyone.

You’ve never met a swan, have you?
“Mild annoyance” are the seagulls stealing your food.
(Yes, that swan dunked the seagull so it couldn’t fly away.)
Swans don’t steal food. You give it to them hoping they don’t murder you.

Weirdly, the notion that swans are particularly aggressive is one I learnt on the English-speaking part of the internet (so I instantly assume it’s an USianism). Any references to swan behaviour that I can find in German talks about how they’re associated with calm and serenity.

That’s because the Germans have enough sense and morals to leave them alone :)

i have to wonder if americans uh, get them confused with geese… Because geese can absolutely have a tendency to actively harass you, while swans don’t get close enough to interact with us in the first place.
Unless american swans are just suffering from lead poisoning like the general population?

They are calm… by German standards.

In my experience it’s more of a specifically British phobia.

Don’t know, I’ve seen swans being total assholes in Finland, in Estonia, in Czechia, so maybe in Germany around Baltic shore they are also not seen as calm
There are a lot of animals that are seen completely not how they are, based on vibes, like wise owls, or cunning snakes, etc

I like the title of the seagull video, that’s very on point

“Remain perfectly still, their vision is based on movement.”
“Nah, fuck this bird.” Kicks swan to the moon

I actually made an AI video of exactly what you just described.

Hot Fuzz. But with a swan.

I want to see a Jurassic Park movie where it’s just realistic velociraptors breaking out of captivity and are just mildly annoying. Then the main character gets stomped on by a brachiosaurus.
