Background: Peter #McIndoe, 23, created the "Birds Aren't Real" movement in 2017 as a parody of #conspiracy theories, according to The New York Times, His storyline claimed birds are drones created by the government to #spy on its citizens, although McIndoe says he's done with the joke now. "It's a way to laugh at the madness rather than be overcome by it," he told the newspaper.
Not everyone has heard of the "Birds Aren't Real" claim, but apparently someone at the US Consumer Product Safety Commission has, because on Wednesday, that organization's account tweeted, "Birds are real."
