You’re making up hypotheticals like any of this is happening in a vacuum. Eating a whale isn’t raping a person (or even an animal as you yourself acknowledge when you call it murder), it’s part of survival for many indigenous peoples living on remote islands. Are you paying to replace all that lost protein, fat, and calories? Do you have any idea how expensive it is to ship it there? Unless you’re dedicating yourself to radically altering the foods available to the people living there, you have no right to criticize how they feed themselves.

It is goofy to fixate on indigenous peoples engaging in sustainable hunts as long as factory farming exists, absolute waste of time. I can’t help but wonder if people freak out so hard about it because they feel like there’s a higher chance of coercing minorities.
