    Are people really so stupid to think that whales just blindly go wherever and would hurt themselves whacking into a new object out to sea?!?!

      Most people interact with content by seeing a brief blurb on social media. The norm on reddit was around 2-2.5% of people would click through the title to the article. Failing to do the very basics - checking to see if the article says what is claimed, and thinking about it critically - is what almost everybody is doing.

      I think the idea is that the noise or vibrations from them harm the whales. At least, that’s what someone I know believes.
