Capitalists when they fucking destroy nature and there’s nothing left to pillage:

:shocked-pikachu:.

There’s a very strong possibility at least some of the snow crab population went further north + west into colder parts of the bering sea owned by Russia / Canada.

most of the crabs could very much still be alive and actually just went further north / west into the colder parts of the bering sea owned by Russia and Canada.

Any crabs that did stick around were likely killed as bycatch by trawler fisheries chasing larger fish that have also moved further north due to climate change.

Americans literally climated changed themselves out of billions in crab murder money lol

The TNO mod for HOI4 features America and Japan starting a nuclear holocaust over fishing rights to shrimp, funnily enough.

HOI4 sounds like it has tons of cool shit and modding community. I really wish it was my type of game, I like hearing about it, but for the life of me I can’t get into those types of games. I use to play regular RTS games a lot but I’ve also lost interest in then.

Do you know of any good youtubers who do good HOI4 content? I’d probably watch some of that at least

TNO doesn’t use the actual game mechanics much, depending on the nation you play. It’s much more about reading the 9,000 text events, so you might still enjoy it.

You are rolling your eyes at that phrasing in a thread about the ecological collapse caused by viewing other animals as disposable. okay.

crabs literally do not even have a nervous system more complex than a simple ganglion so the take that it is “murder” is even more extreme than 99% of vegans’ opinions, it is on the level of fucking Jains sweeping the path in front of them to not step on a bug. kill a roach? OMG MURDER. 🙄

Additional twitter thread from someone else with a history of the Alaskan snow crab collapse:

https://nitter.net/unpop_science/status/1581660239501283329

TL;DR: It is likely also due to extensive fishing. The fishing industry destroyed itself and the ecosystem.
