Yet, what was interesting about the conspiracy theory had mentioned by Peter at the show.
The reason behind Birds Aren’t Real movement
Calling it just a parody at 60 minutes, Peter said Birds Aren’t Real was for reflecting the absurdity of misconception and conspiracy. He went on to say that it is to make people laugh rather than believing it to be true and then get scared of it. Further, in the interview with Sharyn Alfonsi, Peter spoke a lot about his life too.
Saying he grew up in a “fundamentalist community”. There were a lot of conspiracy theories he was dealing with. The interview thus went on to describe on how during a protest he came up with this weird Birds Aren’t Real line that had nothing to do with protest but ended up becoming insanely popular.
I’m watching #60Minutes and they are doing a story on a satirical movement called, “Birds Aren’t Real.” The creator is 24 years old and he is brilliant. Well done! #birdsarentreal.
