I had not heard of "Christians Against Dinosaurs" before reading the story below.
"Christian Group Seeks Removal Of Dinosaur From Tucson McDonald's" | Patch (https://patch.com/arizona/tucson/christian-group-calls-remove-dinosaur-tucson-mcdonalds)
First, I was going to be unreasonably optimistic and call "Poe" on this one. Then I thought about it and realized that if I put a bet on it, I'd rather bet that it's genuine fundamentalist crank. That way, if I lost the bet I'd have the consolation that at least despair for the species wasn't confirmed in this instance. If I won, at least I'd get a few spondulicks out of the hypothetical wreckage of my hopes for humanity.
I then did some further research and I now think the evidence points to a parody. However, it has attracted true believers. :headshake:
"Poes, Trolls, and Dinosaur Deniers" | Skeptic (https://www.skeptic.com/insight/poes-trolls-and-dinosaur-deniers/)
"'Christians Against Dinosaurs' Target Arizona McDonald's T. rex Replica | Friendly Atheist (https://friendlyatheist.patheos.com/2020/08/31/christians-against-dinosaurs-target-arizona-mcdonalds-t-rex-replica/)
There are other sources (mostly extended head-scratching exercises), but I thought the clues laid out in the Skeptic piece lined up fairly conclusively.
Now what have the dinosaurs done to them? They've been dead for 65 million years give or take so it's not like they can do much.

Poe, or Genuine?
Let me ask 8-Ball.

8-Ball says 'yes'. Not very helpful I'm afraid. :-\
