Parrots only want to rule civilization, not overthrow it.  While they find chaos highly entertaining, they are not beasts of political anarchy.  They are, however, sadists.  It’s good times to bite you and then watch you flap around and squawk in pain.  That’s an evening at the cinema for them.

Their plan to take power is insidious, however.  They’re skilled in manipulation and intrigue, and know how to leverage their cuteness, fluffiness, and charming vocal prowess to gain control, but they prefer to remain as the power behind the scenes.  The day a national leader with a pet parrot takes the reins, you know we’re in trouble.
