Cool - fuck the whales so we can test our war machine. This is stupid.
- s5300 5y agoErr, I guess you'd be repulsed at what some society's did to make sure they had enough oil to light their lamps back in the day...
- ALittleLight 5y agoOr the fact that Japan still hunts whales.
- austhrow743 5y agoCanada hunts over twice as many whales as Japan. The US almost as much as Japan. Plenty of other countries putting up big numbers as well. Weird to single out Japan when the article isn't about Japan.
- mthoms 5y agoFor context, whaling in Canada is entirely done by indigenous peoples using (more or less) traditional methods. Japanese whaling is industrial/commercial in nature (even though it’s performed under the guise of “research”).
- marton78 5y agoGreat argument. You know what people also used to do in the past? Rape and pillage. Let's do that, too! Hey, there's also historical precedent for slavery. Let's reintroduce it!
- gscott 5y agoIf any whales surface to the top upside down they collect them and cook them up. Cycle of life.
- deepsun 5y agoWell, this is short-term. Long-term, if they don't test their war machine, a new war can break up and kill waaaay more whales in the process, quite possibly all of them.
