Who is eating all the fish?

answer: China is trying to empty the oceans and it doesn't give a fuck
- It's not just China. Pretty much every country is over fishing.

FTA:
"Nutritionally, it is far more efficient than meat"
TIL Fish is not meat...
- Whoever said that must be Catholic.
  
  At one time both capybaras and puffins were classified as fish by the church to allow their consumption on all days. They were just too convenient to ignore.
  
  Amen.
- Is it not common in most places to differentiate land animals (meat) from sea animals (fish)? I get your point that there's no real distinction to make philosophically, but it's customary and most people understand it?
  
  No? The only times I've seen fish treated as somehow not meat is for religious reasons. Generally you'd categorize the meat by the type of animal, such as beef, pork, chicken/poultry, or the broad categories like fish or shellfish.
  Maybe it just depends on if you live someplace that's very religious or not?
  
  I dunno, I just assumed that anything that bleeds when you kill it is meat.
- Even to his day, I still meet "vegetarians" who eat fish. Usually boomer age.

  I once met a vegetarian when i was only 8 and wasn't even sure what that was. She explained that she doesn't eat meat, just fish and chicken. Instead of just asking a real adult, i made shit up in my brain like: fjsh aren't meat and neither are chickens, because their meat is white or some shit.
  
  My FIL is going through some medical issues and considered going mostly vegetarian to try and reverse the (irreversible) organ damage he was told he had. His plan was just fish, eggs and poultry, with red meat just once or twice a week.
  I’m not often speechless.

China must be lying about its aquaculture output, otherwise why are they fishing the oceans clean?
Time to start sinking fishing vessels.
- As long as we also carpet bomb meat and feed farms since the environmental impact of beef is much larger
  
  Tell me you didn't read the article without telling me you didn't read the article
  
  Much harder to do that without getting caught by governments. Sinking fishing boats in international waters seems comparatively safer.

This article has impeccable graphics and UX design. Its almost a documentary that I can scroll through.
- This article has impeccable [...] UX design.
  It's stupidly frustrating. I want to read the fucking article... Not scroll for 2 hours to get to the next paragraph.
  
  This is how I feel about these sort of multimedia articles too. Give me a "text only" button, at least
- I really disliked how they showed heavily pivoted globe instead of a map to show china’s activities. They went for maximum style points and didn’t care about my ability to read and interpret the data.
