Date: September 5th, 2026 12:23 AM Author: queensbridge benzo it's because people who aren't rsf don't have enough energy dense blubber to make it worth the energy. they detect this with sonar, and in rsf's case, are deterred from going after something larger by the way he affects gravity.

Date: September 5th, 2026 8:09 AM Author: Senior Ethics Official Heres a theory which is almost certainly correct: they think we are gods and that agression will lead to their demise. Theyre directionally correct on that too. The reason they think that is thay humams killed 90%+ of their race. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5900777&forum_id=2).#50117147) |

Date: September 5th, 2026 9:20 AM Author: ,.,..,.,..,.,.,.,..,.,.,,..,..,.,,..,.,,. i'm not a biologist, so i'll just speculate naively based on clumps of memories and conjecture that might not even be related to fact.
first of all, they're a pod animal, which means that individual members don't just go off and innovate on their own (like sharks). they hunt things based on culture and instruction, which is presumably an initial barrier against eating people, since humans are not a marine creature.
secondarily, they definitely have killed people in captivity, so it's not like they have an inherent/metaphysical law against the act. but those were isolated specimens, outside the context of their actual pod. and not as food, but as something more like murder.
but food needs to have nutritional value. orcas have very good sonar which scans objects for characteristics they desire. humans are presumably bad at fitting this profile compared to fish or marine mammals, unless they are really fat.
orcas educate themselves culturally about food characteristics, and swimming humans fall outside of that profile. however, if a fat human put on a seal costume and approached a younger orca, i bet he'd have at least a minor chance of getting ate.
