“Goose” should be in the upper right

Osprey is libertarian and Bald eagle is authoritarian because the osprey catches the fish and the bald eagle takes it.

Fuck those ruby-throated hummingbirds. Birds shouldn't need chainsaws for mouths.

What? I've got a lot of Ana's Hummingbirds in my area, which I've heard called Ruby Throated before. I don't understand what you meant by this.

They’re different species.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

They are vicious little crackheads with chainsaws for mouths.

Osprey won't eat food it doesn't catch itself. Seems more libertarian to me. Florida scrub jays will eat out of your hand, sends like they could go more left. Great kiskadee would be authoritarian, and will attack whatever, but are small. Not sure where it would go. This is fun.

It's a really good pronoun for referring to a group of not oneself but observing oneself without gender distinction.

Add the western scrub jay to the left libertarian section. Now for the real question: where do crows belong here?

They're the anarchists who fall off the map. ;)

To be an overly technical fun ruiner, anarchists would be extreme libertarian left, where the sora is

There's documentation that shows mallards engaging in murder/rape/necrophilia, so that'd place them at the Libertarian right imho

What about mafia-style cowbirds?

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 1 points 2 days ago

Upper right corner for the grackle?

Well, my profile picture contains an Osprey...
