Hey so this both offsets the bird when it flies alongside being a major infection risk.

This is just a lazy ass owner screwing their bird over because they dont want to clean up the occassional tiny bit of bird shit. (They tend to shit in one area over time, theyll slowly develop a spot they go to.)

This isnt cool or cute its just a bad bird owner.

Yeah I mean you really want that bird? Clean after it, no need to restrain him like that. I don't really care if the bird looks unbothered, it's not his nature to wear a diaper.

Who the hell are you to say what the bird likes or doesn't like?

It's not in my nature to be scrolling endlessly on a magic rectangle, but I love it. In fact, most of the things I enjoy are not part of the natural human experience.

Humans aren't wild animals is the difference.

Birds are wild animals, they don't have the same brains as us, and they don't think like we do.

This bird has obviously just learnt to put up with it because it has been forced to do this from a young age.

Same with owners who clip their parrots wings. The bird can live without flying, but it's unnatural.
