China’s recent military exercise showcased a drone that mimics the appearance and flight of a falcon, fueling the Gen-Z conspiracy theory that “birds aren’t real.” Footage of the People’s Liberation Army deploying the bird-like drone, called the “Little Falcon,” revealed its uncanny resemblance to a real bird, including flapping wings and aerial maneuvers. Although the video’s continuity raised some skepticism, the drone’s intended use for surveillance and reconnaissance has sparked further speculation among those who believe in the theory.

? original sound – Birds Aren’t Real
The “Birds Aren’t Real” movement, which humorously questions the authenticity of birds, is likely to be invigorated by this development. The falcon drone, designed for stealth and disguise, aligns with the movement’s claims that birds are government surveillance tools. This new military technology is not likely to dissuade those who already embrace the conspiracy, potentially reinforcing their beliefs.
The viral footage of the “Little Falcon” and its implications have stirred discussions on social media, highlighting the intersection of technology, military innovation, and modern conspiracy theories. This development underscores how advanced technology can blur the lines between reality and fiction, especially in the digital age where information and misinformation spread rapidly.
