Keep in mind that nuclear weapons would be useless against them and since they possess human-level intelligence, they will quickly figure out how to sabotage drones, take down power lines/grids, organize well-coordinated attacks, etc.

>>5091270They've declared war and they're as smart as humans now, so imprinting doesn't work,Penguins in Antarctica are likewise fighting for Team Bird, so you can't hide there either.
>>5091267we'd be fucked big time. even small birbs can take out your eyes and they are everywhere in huge numbers. no one could walk outside. we'd need to reinforce all spaces we use with mesh wire and they'd probably figure out how to get in there too. and if not, they'd just siege and starve us. so small numbers of survivors in fortified buildings or underground, running out of supplies
>>5091267>nuclear weapons would be useless against themNo
>>5091291are you fucking kidding, all we need is buckshot and motorcycle helmets, burds will be rekt in a year
>>5091336No way to take most them out with nukes without rendering the world uninhabitable for humans.>>5091351>ultra-intelligent cassowaries get called in to disembowel you
>>5091409The largest, most powerful bird is physically weaker than a malnourished 14 year old african american with a $5 gas station pocketknife. Also their entire clade is extremely susceptible to several respiratory diseases that mammals are not. Give them an ultimatum: we aerosolize some germs and come up with a new way to control bug populations, or they fuck off.
>>5091414Good luck developing those germs when the power grids for your labs are all down and the birds kamikaze attack and/or sabotage the engines of any aircraft
>>5091416We literally have them already and please remember, birds are extremely weak. The best they could do is force their own extinction with zero negotiation.
>>5091267What is their goal though? How are they organized? How are they overcoming the fact that a lot of birds eat other birds as their main food source? How do they get their landbound units around? They can't really make or utilize complex devices as they don't have thumbs. People would probably have some issues but birdproofing isn't super hard. Helmet and thick clothing and they can't really get at you, and then all you'd need are big nets, shotguns, clubs and tesla coils if you wanna be fancy.
>>5091267If they had human level intelligence they wouldn’t just automatically kill themselves trying to kill humans. At most we’d have to agree to stop eating birds and eggs, and maybe not fuck with their habitat.
>>5091267we just build more wind turbineshasten global warming to increase tropical stormsspray ddtbirdshotharass them to prevent them from sleepingthis isnt very hard, birds are really fragile, we almost wiped them all out without even trying half the time
>>5091267>let my cat outside >999,999,999 birds slain
>>5091270Doesn't that only work on newborn birds who are seeing for the first time?
>>5091432wild burds wouldn't give a fuck about chickensjust because they're intelligent doesn't mean all the bird species will effectively cooperate...the crows will probably come on our side
Emus would conquer Australia
>>5091576If a corvid "sides" with a human, it's working for an individual
We will probably have to return to 14th century technology wise since we already had a perfect solution against birds. Now what to do on the offensive side I don't know. They are too fast and agile for melee.Guns won't work because the sound of a shot will get trapped inside your helmet and reverberate until your eardrums explode.Maybe some sort of a slingshot will work.
A super bird shot shotgun and a suit of armor is all you need
