Conserving whales just became exponentially harder. Thankfully they aren’t the nitrogen pumps of the ocean, or the majority of food for the deep sea, or the center of billions of dollars in wildlife viewing, or a source of food for northern communities.

The totenkopf on the dude first on the left is a good clue.

Many soldiers still use the skull as an emblem (see the Punisher skull for the SEALs) or regiment emblems all around the world. It's a way of making others fear them and all.
Also I understand the reference btw.

Punisher is a kind of unofficial emblem and it's more something some individuals do. I've seen it more on civvy and moto stuff than on actual servicemen.

When I was in Ramadi in ‘06 as a Marine grunt, the SEAL platoon we worked closely with for the deployment all had the Punisher skull spray painted on their armor carriers.
There’s no question it’s far more prevalent on all the dumbass Grunt Style and Nine Line shirts these days, but the teams definitely adopted it for a while](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tgkvm2cnko2wvhordyicb53o/bafkreibdg3j5y77tjfih4jxuwys2pseaio3nwbwjetoef4zuk2phe2ijrq)
