The orcas are attacking small sailboats, which tend to have less of an environmental impact… less engine use, quiet, fewer people on board, very small scale fishing (if at all). It’s weird to be rooting against this sort of ship when cruise ships and trawlers are the real problem - and also pretty difficult to attack. Will you count it as a success if people favor larger powerboats over small sailboats?

Oh, I think you misunderstood. I’m rooting for the whales as against all the humans. ;)

I know I'm on HN when someone is explaining why the "woke" ideology of the orcas attacking yachts is ultimately futile.

Try to explain that to the Orcas. They are killing those baby boats before they grow into big evil loud adults.

I’m not explaining any ideology… definitely don’t think of Orcas in terms of “woke” or not. Just stating that rooting for the orcas is rooting for something fairly self-defeating.
