Anyone want to add to their already depressing mental state, then definitely watch this. Holy shit.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaspiracy
It's mostly right (we are in fact trashing the oceans and over-harvesting what's left)
Thanks for confirming what the movie confirmed.
the movie confirmed very little. what it did do is take a grain of truth and then expand it into places it should have never been taken, thus diluting its value to a vanishing point. that wikipedia entry lists numerous issues with the movie.
the movie says we shouldn't harvest ANYTING from the sea. that is irresponsible and stupid. like any other natural resource, it can be used sustainably. saying shit like "no more fishing ever" is just going to alienate anyone with half a brain, and generally do a disservice to the environmental cause.
i could go on, but i'll just leave you with this from actual experts:
3 Documentaries to Watch Instead of ‘Seaspiracy’Marine biologists aren’t impressed with Netflix’s hit documentary on ocean conservation. They recommended some other films on the subject for us.
If it’s mostly right not sure what the big problem is... or why you discredit it
I am tired of this bothsidesism
it's not bothsidism, which i also despise. it's the belief that the ends justify the means that gets to me. we get all up in arms when the other side does it but somehow tolerate it when our side does it... i can't abide by that, nor its consequences. i see a lot of equivalency between folks ready to swallow seaspiracy because they're pro-environmentalism so damn the details; and folks on the right who don't truly believe trump's Big Lie but are willing to go along with it because it is in general alignment with their beliefs.
