Maybe they were fed junk and that has played a part in their inability to thrive.

>So public ownership of the resources and production of services...is capitalism?
Just because something is owned by the state does not mean it isn't a part of some capitalist scheme. The state is an actor like everyone else that is free to engage in capitalist endeavours. There are countless infrastructures that don't benefit the public in any way even though, on paper, the public "owns" these structures.
The state is often a key perpetrator in processes involving extracting capital and resources while providing nothing in return for the local communities. This is called extractivism and is as far away from socialism as you can get.

So they had a successful strategy, and humans have screwed up their environment to such a degree that it's now a problem. That's a bummer.

Isn’t this what they’ve always done tho? Orchas are matriarchal, with usually a strong grandma heading the pod

They're not aline, they're one of 2 really. It is a bit overblown, but most of the species are either threatened or near threatened, depending on the list. It's not great to over hunt them, which is why the IWC was made. Most whales are on the road to recovery, which is good.
As I said, it's a bit overblown, but people tend to get that way about conservation

Kind of tired of this braindead "everything bad is capitalism" circlejerk Reddit has. As if public services don't regularly fuck shit up lol.

Yep, exactly. Japan is not alone and they are not whaling endangered species. People overblow it.

Is whales imitating human life? or are humans imitating whales?

I mean, not many other countries whale at at. Canada, Iceland, Japan, Norway, Russia, South Korea, the United States and the Danish dependencies of the Faroe Islands and Greenland are the only ones that do in modern times. Most of those are aboriginal whaling as well, meaning done by the natives of the lands. Commercial hunting is only done by Norway, Japan, Iceland, and South Korea.
Japan and Norway constitute 82% of that commercial whaling roughly.
Blue whales, as of now, are not hunted. The Internationak Whaling Commission has had a moratorium on hunting them and other great whales since 1985.
So yeah, its mostly Japan and Norway lol.

It's supposed to be posted every hour, on the hour, but each time from a slightly different news source. Then, also on special times. I have 4:20pm today covered.

Yes, dams kill some. But that amount (with technology and design) has shrunk dramatically, and global warming fish issues have just kept on rising.

Depends on the state. Where I live (Oregon), we do retrofit. But we're a pretty pro-fish and nature state.

Gen-X whales are surprisingly happy and well adjusted. However, they did come from a place where their only representation was Shamu and airbrushed pictures of their kin on hoodies.

Oh, keep thinking Dr. Weiss. I'm sure another example will come to you.
