    I didn’t say it had to be effective. I explained why it’s not. It’s the person at the top of the thread who said it should be effective. I just explained the issue.

    The dolphin lives in a tiny confined space and is deprived of everything interesting in their life, unable to pursue most of their behavior. Now if there is something going on outside the barriers of the aquarium, of course it excites/interests the dolphin.

    That requires a bare minimum of thought to understand. Most people don’t want to put in the bare minimum.

      I genuinely don’t think this is uneffective. There are probably a bunch of people who genuinely didn’t recognize the problem here and were exposed to a different perspective. And might be more critical next time they see a supposedly ‘wholesome’ picture like that.
