(Because technically birds are dinosaurs, not a relative).

Crocodilia, like birds, are archosaurs.

In a war, the birds would side with the crocodiles. I'm calling it.

It’ll be those bloody emus at it again.

one continent was not enough, and though they do not thirst for the entire world, they do thirst for our half

If they ever discover their cousin the ostrich we won't survive the next war

Exactly, fuck paraphyletic groups.

sounds like crocodiles trying to give a false alibigator

To be fair, dinosauria are subclade of archosauria, so dinosaurs are archosaurs.

And that's not what Mr Driver's sign is talking about. He's talking about crocodiles. So even if dinosaurs are archosaurs, it's completely irrelevant to the point

<insert jackdaw != crow copypasta>

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What's this crow copypasta I'm missing out on?

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My point being that archosaur as a group ia not comparable to dinosaurs as dinosaur is a subgroup.

Like saying mice are not apes, mice are mammal.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 0 points 1 day ago

Nobody is contesting your point, it's just irrelevant

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 days ago

I run archosaur btw

Also many were crocodlymorphs, not actual true crocodiles/alligators in the past.
