Message from my Captain Paul Watson. Please share.

Sea Shepherd USA, Sea Shepherd Global and Sea Shepherd Australia have hit us with a broadside disabling my Facebook accounts. They are spending a great deal of money (donor money) to silence me and to erase my history as the founder and the leader of Sea Shepherd for the last 45 years. Even my mention of the words “Sea Shepherd” is now considered by FB to be a trademark violation. The organization is now in the control of a Floridian Property Developer named Pritam Singh a.k.a. Paul Labombard. I could never imagine prior to last summer that Sea Shepherd would be controlled by a man who holds fishing licenses in Alaska and Florida and owns a fishing lodge in Alaska. Sea Shepherd supporters are continuing to support this charade because they don’t know what is happening and Sea Shepherd is working to silence me, to erase my history. Sea Shepherd supporters are being bamboozled by a false narrative. This once highly effective organization is no longer what it was. Since I can’t use the name Sea Shepherd, the name that I created, I am referring to them as the Sea Pretenders. Sea Shepherd USA is suing me to deny me the right to use my own name. Sea Shepherd Global is suing Sea Shepherd France to deny them the right to use the Sea Shepherd name and Sea Shepherd logos, the name and logos that I created. You can help in this situation by posting my message in social networks. I am finding that when people are made aware of the hostile takeover of Sea Shepherd that they will support my Captain Paul Watson Foundation and we will continue the work we have been doing for the last 45 years. Sea Shepherd has changed. I have not.’ Sea Shepherd in France, the U.K., Brazil and Hungary remain loyal to me and are also being targeted by the people who have seized control of our organization, people who are more interested in power and control than in doing the real work to protect life in the sea. This summer, my Foundation will send a ship to Icelandic waters to defend and protect endangered Fin whales. The people who now control Sea Shepherd are trying to stop me. I need your support. Thank you Captain Paul Watson Founder of Sea Shepherd (1977) Founder of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation (2022)
