No "we" are not. You think orcas will take down freighters or cruiseliners?

This is interesting for sure, but nothing about nature "fighting back"

It's a running joke originally from the covid months in 2020 when nature came back in unexpected places where people started saying we're the plage and the planet is healing stuff. So like everything on the internet please don't take it at face value

Clearly they just need to learn how and all ocean travel becomes impossible when nature begins to fight back

How many orcas we talkin

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You can send in 10,000 orcas and still nothing will happen. Make it a 100,000 and it's still an interesting yet uneventful voyage.

What if they're given knives, rope, and prep time?
