This should be outlawed.
the only reason i hold onto any idea of spiritual retribution is for folks like this.
if there’s just one thing that we should all learn from living, it’s the importance of equilibrium.
This only exists because capitalism demands it.
China and Vietnam do the most and second-most bottom trawling in the world. We need to collectively ban the equipment, because the economic pressure exists regardless of which extant system the country uses
China is state capitalist. We need to transition to communism, which even Xi says China hasn’t achieved.
Right, well until someone has a real plan for actually doing that, I’m still going to suggest that we should ban the bottom trawling equipment in the meantime
First thought: Damn, that’s crazy they went ahead and did it to get the footage even though they knew how bad it was.
Then: Well, I guess the fishermen were gonna do it no matter what, huh?
Wait, aren’t the fishermen worried that this footage could ruin their livelihood?
Wait… Maybe they believe that the legality of this practice already has ruined their livelihood, and they want it to stop but can’t compete unless regulation forces everyone to stop…
I really hate this.
This brings tears to my eyes, what a horrific and willful destruction of life. Seeing those poor creatures trying and inevitably failing to escape the net is just awful.
😢 that’s sad to watch
I didn’t realise how disruptive this practice is, watching that video has filled me with such heavy disappointment in humanity.
I wish there was something we could do to actually meaningfully change this but it feels next to impossible to do any good when the world is in so much turmoil.
Maybe one day when the genocide in Gaza, and the threat of home grown fascism across the world, and when all of the world’s people have their basic needs met we will be able to prioritise humanity’s survival.
I’m at the very least aware now of the damage that is done by bottom trawling and I’ll remember the damage it does to the ecosystem, for whatever that is worth.

If it weren’t for bottom trawling, I’d never get laid.
