In a significant move towards fostering inclusivity and distancing avian species from problematic historical figures, the American Ornithological Society (AOS) has announced its intention to rename several North American birds. This initiative, set to impact numerous avian species in Pennsylvania, aims to dissociate these magnificent creatures from namesakes associated with racism.
The AOS's decision to rename certain birds stems from the realization that several species, such as the Townsend's warbler and solitaire, bear names that honor individuals with racist backgrounds. Peter Saenger, an ornithologist from Muhlenberg College in Allentown, has highlighted that this project could potentially affect over a dozen birds that breed, migrate to, or visit Pennsylvania.

...”Thunderbird wines have an interesting story; E&J Gallo launched the brand in Los Angeles in the 1950s. The wine was 20% ABV and a bright, citrusy yellow. The sheer audacity of the product’s flavor and alcohol content raised eyebrows but helped the bottles fly off the shelves.....””
This kind of booschidt is proof that the world is severely overpopulated. Too many “wasis” azhos with absolutely NOTHING to friggin do with their useless little lives.
We all know what giving somebody the “bird” means. That “bird” crap is going to have to go too! It’s hate speech and violent hate speech at that. Get a life, azhos!
Some of these birdbrains(no pun intended)have too much time on their hands.Aside from trying to erase history and knowledge in a vain hope of destroying our country.
Amuse yourselves asswipes. The birds already have names and they shall remain....like Fort Bragg, Fort Hood etc.
I’m so sick of this crap.
I bet they would really be infuriated at Ft. Irwin visitors calling the local crows/ravens “soul chickens”.
‘African American bird singing in the dead of night’, just not the same.
“This is what passes for science these days.”
Same kind of assholery that promotes global warming. And they tried to change that to climate change. No, no you rotters...you are stuck with global warming.
Yet Margaret Sanger’s name is EVERYWHERE...
He sounds vaxxed, boosted, masked and I’m pretty sure he’s drinking a Bud Light right now.
Just as I suspected, a donkey face to go with the Muhlenberg Mules:

Well, President Reagan warned us about 1000 years of darkest tyranny...
This dark communist tyranny, we are now slaves to, will last about 950 years more...
There certainly isn't any possible glimmer of realistic hope that the chains will be cast off... Certainly not by political means...
The communist hegemony, worldwide, is in ascendance...
There is only one possible solution...
They need to take away the popular name of the Corvidae birds too.
“Crow” is racist due to Jim Crow laws, and also the Apsáalooke (more commonly known as the “Crow People”)
Is “jailbird” racist? Asking for a friend.
The Baltimore Oriole is on the list, so the baseball team will have to be renamed.
