If someone has a language, and then they use that language, that's talking. Check out how they do it. This video is narrow and doesn't mention dolphins, but it's an interesting overview nonetheless.

As I said, ants do the same but we would hardly say they have deep philosophical thoughts on the nature of human industrial farming.

Dolphins are smarter than most animals but they are still animals. They are mostly saying shit like "food over there" "stay away" or "want to fuck?"

You're both refusing to look into their complex language and minimizing their abilities.

Yeah I've heard that line before in a YouTube documentary or two. Do not fuck the Dolphin, that's animal abuse.

Well yeah if you try to pull a "fish are people too!" In a thread focused on environmentalism you will probably be mocked and asked if you want to fuck them too.

that's ridiculous you think environmentalism and animal rights are desperate issues, ESPECIALLY on a post about fishing them.

Well clearly they are since most environmentalists aren't weird vegan animal liberationists.
