Just edging out our favorite woodland creature, Loch Ness Monster. What a great way to drive tourism to an inherently dull area.

But my new number one, by a country mile, where they are all recharging on powerlines, is BIRDS AREN'T REAL. Get out of the way chemtrails, we don't need that crazy talk in here.

This morning in the NYT. A butterfly preserve shuts down to keep its employees safe because conservative morons are easily swayed to believing outlandish bullshit. Employees believe they will act on the outlandish claims and do something dangerous.

MISSION, Texas — For nearly two decades, the National Butterfly Center has provided a place of wonder along the banks of the Rio Grande, attracting curious visitors and nature enthusiasts from around the country to watch delicate creatures like the xami hairstreak float over flowers and alight on logs.
Among those who trade in outlandish right-wing conspiracies online, though, the center is said to be something else: a cover for human smuggling, sex trafficking and the exploitation of children. The lies have spread so widely in recent years that the center is now receiving visitors with no interest in butterflies at all.
Last month, a Republican congressional candidate from Virginia came to the center looking for a site of human smugglers and had a physical altercation with its director. Days later, a man from an upstart media organization associated with Steve Bannon recorded a video outside the center’s gates, claiming “credible threats of the cartels trafficking children through the butterfly center.” To make his point, he held up a tiny shoe.
On Wednesday, as butterflies fluttered across winter-browned grasses, frenzied staff members packed files, fielded messages from saddened supporters and hung a sign on the gate: “Closed until further notice.” Nearby, a newly installed police guard tower flashed red and blue.
The Center was targeted with lies because they refused to sell out to the big beautiful wall.
