The term refers to American military foreign policy in which the establishment of Democracy and Civil/Human Rights are the reasons for war in the face of a so called tyrannical government. The fact that once said tyranny is toppled and America begins to do the usual of extracting resources, reducing the country to rubble via warfare, while installing their own incompetent corrupt puppet regimes is implied as a given. The end result is that American soldiers are fighting the war due to said country not being liberal enough. So while they're dying in some wartorn hellhole, Neoliberal (though sometimes Neocon as well) figures can have feel good talking points while pretending they're supporting the "good guys" and are on the "right side of history" as if life were a Marvel comic book.
The term is essentially meaningless and is used as a way to mock Neoliberal politics. See Globohomo for details

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.
Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
