Whales are dumb... Especially North Atlantic Right Whales... They called them ‘Right’ Whales because they were the easiest to hunt. They tend to swim towards you, rather than away from you.
It’s amazing that there are any North Atlantic Right Whales left.... Only a few hundred, or so. There are thousands of Right Whales left in other areas of the planet, but those areas aren’t used for fishing as much as the Atlantic is.
It’s less important to leftists to have a scheme that actually works than it is to have a handy scapegoat for its failure. This one: Trump/capitalism/religion/transphobia, take your pick.
