    And though recent events may fit the story of these orcas’ being anti-colonial warriors, you can’t just anthropomorphize animals selectively. What about all the other “evidence” we have of orcas’ cruelty, or even wickedness? Scientists say they hunt and slaughter sharks by the dozen, picking out the liver from each one and leaving the rest of the carcasses to rot uneaten. Orcas kill for sport. They push, drag, and spin around live prey, including sea turtles, seabirds, and sea lions. Some go so far as to risk beaching themselves in order to snag a baby seal—not to consume, but simply to torture it to death. Once you start applying human ethical standards to apex predators, things turn dark fast.

    ....lol OK let's take a look at humanity's treatment of other sentient life next

      It isn't anti-colonial violence because it's ridiculous to call Gibraltar a colony. Spain is not a victim of colonialism and it is ridiculous to compare a territorial dispute between Spain and Britain with the colonial pasts of either nation

        I guess I figured it was "anti-colonial" against humans colonizing marine resources lol, but if people are really tying it to Gibraltar then ...lol....
