Why do feathers make people seethe?It’s not like it takes away from them having been an apex predator
>>5142544Because there are fair number of known skin impressions from T. Rex, and they all show scales, no signs of feathers. Silly, grossly inaccurate depictions should be mocked.
>>5142547Aw look at them hugging
>>5142547>and they all show scales
>>5142564It's Brian Engh you can dismiss anything he says. He's still trapped on the contrarian mid 2010's era
The fact the there are now tundra segments in dinosaur documentaries is more frustrating,
>>5142544The featherfags have mostly conceded. The current trends they push involve saggy subcutaneous fat, dewlaps and backwards hands.
>>5142544i like feathers when they're accurate. i dislike them when they aren't. simple as.
>>5142764It is as simple as that really. A feathered T. rex is retarded as a featherless Velociraptor
>>5142770Thats the problem though there isn't sufficient evidence to rule out tyrannosaurus had some feathering entirely. As it stands we cant rule out elephant type integument of sparse filaments, there is no evidence for it, but more importantly there is no evidence against it. Since the conditions that allow the fossilization of skin and feathers seems to be somewhat mutually exclusive
>>5142770have we found a single velociraptor feather?
>>5142943the evidence for feathers are a trex are circumstantial at best because we have so much skin with scales that the only places that could be feathered are really weird
>>5142943>there is no evidence for it, but more importantly there is no evidence against itthe absolute state of the sciences
>>5142943If it doesn't have direct evidence of feathers and neither do any of its close relatives then it didn't have them in my eyes. Yes i know it's technically possible it did have them but i believe in the scientific method
>>5142949There's quill knobs, which means not only did Velociraptors had feathers but were flapping their arms quite a bit
>>5142544Because trannies and shitposters always try to put them on animals that didn't have them, which is anti-scientific behavior. And anti-scientific behavior should be punished by death.
>>5142581Lol the funniest thing about featherfags is that their shit is so old and tired that now they can be ranked with sex lakes and global tidal theory. Sucks to suck.
>>5142607The worst part of this is that there's absolutely no scientific evidence for this. Nothing. Nothing in paleontology says this. It is totally fabricated. It has absolutely no basis in any fossil evidence whatsoever. It's one of the worst trendy "theories" right now in paleontology because it's all of this shitposting taken to its absolute furthest conclusion which is just people making up fanfiction about dinosaurs and then acting like it's science when it's not.
>>5142564>Scale denialism
>>5142770There is no evidence for feathers in Dromaeosaurs outside of Asia. None. The only so-called evidence for it is Dakotaraptor, which doesn't exist.
>>5142943We're still doing feathers of the gaps? >>5142949It wouldn't matter if we did, because that's mongolia which is just as full of fake fraudulent fossils as china. And after the publication of Mirasaura NO paleontology can be trusted, not even in the so-called (((west))) because westerners have proven that they're willing to forge dinosaur fossils just as much as any chink now, which isn't a surprise, since they let chinks, spics and jeets just get away with it for decades. As I feared, it was only a matter of time before White people just started doing it too.
>>5142953There isn't even circumstantial evidence of feathers and T. rex. There's only evidence against the claim.Evidence for no feathers in T. rex: literally everything. Evidence for feathers in T. rex: feathertrannies want T. rex to have feathers so they can add them to their fursona
>>5143011That's absolute fucking twaddle. The overwhelming majority of birds do not have quill knobs, and only large flying birds have them.
