Translation: We make too much money from Disney related sales, so we're going to make sure we write in enough exceptions so we can profit.

That would be an interesting argument if Sea World could prove that the same standards aren’t being applied evenly. However, I’m not a legal expert and have no idea what you can sue people over.
Technically, you can sue anyone over anything, but that doesn't mean it won't get thrown out.
They could do a damages lawsuit that not advertising their business while pushing another with the same complaints hurts their ability to profit.
Honestly IANAL, but I suspect their best chance at successful legal recourse would be to essentially make the claim that these rules and granting of exceptions to one company (Disney) who is doing the same thing as SeaWorld (keeping and showing dolphins) is discriminatory in nature.
Is that how it works though? Isn’t it TripAdvisor’s right as a private entity to “discriminate” against once company as much as they want to?
Plus, since most of these sites have some sort of asterisk that “explains” the discrepancy between Disney and Seaworld, even if there was a case to be had, I feel like they could easily make the “captive mammals aren’t central to the Disney experience” cop-out argument and be safe anyway.

Can't they ever go away? PETA once again thinks that did something great.

PETA claims victory after SeaWorld says no to trainers riding atop dolphins
PETA launched a campaign in 2019 to pressure SeaWorld parks to ban "circus-style" behaviors where trainers stand atop the dolphins' snouts during park performances.

we should collectively buy more shares than them and counteract everything they try to do to harm SeaWorld. Fool proof.

I was at SeaWorld yesterday, didnt see this. I will say that SeaWorld added 7 additional show times to their schedule today and 4 additional ones yesterday. So I'd say they are doing pretty good right now.
Not just die but likely die very painfully. I again point to Keiko. The final report issued by the group that was trying very hard to return him to the wild is extremely damming. Despite an extreme effort to teach him he was an extremely poor hunter that was starving and down almost 4 THOUSAND pounds or close to 25% of his body weight. He was both lonely and desperate for food which lead him to constantly seek out humans and causing him to get dangerously close to boats. His weight loss and his lack of natural defenses to stuff he encountered suppressed his immune system and led to chronic and severe pneumonia. He was in such pain that he tried to beach himself on more the one occasion basically meaning he was in so much pain that he was trying to kill himself. What makes you believe that any of those things would be what any annimal would want to go through?
I just saw a 15 second ad for CNN+ on CNN’s website, and almost all of the imagery used in the advertisement was from Blackfish.
CNN has lost all credibility. Not getting political, but if you look at sites that rank news sources based on bias and facts vs opinions they fail at both. Unfortunately Blackfish was very popular for them.
Tbf, most of shows on the 24-hour news channels is not journalism but entertainment programming - the problem is many viewers can't tell the difference.
Of course, having worked in the news industry for a bit, I too believe that even more traditional sources editorialize over report.

There is worse content on cable "news" than CNN, but then again there are things that can hurt your head more than a punch in the jaw. The better play is to just turn off cable.
