I mean, how right am I?
Well, so you're definitely, so trawl, like we talked about from the very start, bottom trawl, and now these midwater trawls that it's been found out that they're on bottom, there's a worldwide push to shut down bottom trawl.
And it's been around for decades.
You mentioned this poll that Alaska did said 74% of Alaskans wanted us total ban.
I got a website.
The, uh,
Anyways, but it, uh, I think you'll see like in the comment sections on your video, this not quite universal support, but if there's 2000 comments, you'll see 25 from trawl reps that get paid to interact and write comments.
And the rest of them are, you know, Alaskans and people that have dealt with trawl fisheries and gotten the short end of the stick that are really vehemently against it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a, you'll never hear anybody that wakes up tomorrow and says, you know what?
I'm in favor.
I think bottom trawl is a good eco-friendly way of catching fish.
And so what I was getting at with trawl has a big problem that everybody already disliked bottom trawl before they figured out it happened in Alaska.
The midwater nets are on the bottom.
So they're kind of bottom trawl.
So to me, strategically, their last possible move that they could make would be to try to make this a political issue.
Alaska is this historically red state, super resource extraction.
People work in oil extracting resources or they're in fishing extracting resources.
And so anytime you get into this, anytime somebody can say, well, these are the eco-terrorists or these are the greenies coming in trying to control us.
