What about it? It ain't really that different from any other fishing industry except that you don't see western twats getting upset when people hunt tuna.

>Have we ever had a thread about whaling?
There are thicc threads every day.

Moby Dick

people used to harvest them for oils. If that's what you are wondering. Now we have dinosaur oil, which is much better.

How about a bad-ass folk song about whaling?

It runs out though.

We oughtve domesticated whales and have whale cowboys shepherding their herds across seas.

Read Moby Dick. It gives a very accurate account of life on a nantucket whaling ship.

Went to the whaling museum when I was in NZ a few years ago, lots of interesting stuff there. What really stuck out in my memory though was where they talked about the mechanization of whaling vessels and said that in the winter whaling season of 1954-1955 when all these industrial whaling vessels with hydraulic harpoons and onboard processing plants first came out its estimated that the combined whaling fleets of Japan and the Soviet Union killed 1/3 of the whales in the entire world in around 5 months.
