Baraka is a documentary film with no narrative; it's a mix of different scenes that aren't sorted by any kind of priority. It does portray many kinds of misery with both people and animals, so I guess you can tell something about a person based on which scene upsets them the most.

Again, not necessarily. Poverty is an institutional condition. Abuse is a personal, deliberate action of one person against another. The two produce very different emotional reactions. In stories, why do you think it's 100X easier to hate a specific villain than a societal situation, regardless of what causes more suffering?

NAYRT

Anon you are being obtuse. The donkey is pulling an incredibly heavy load and seems to be in some distress. The person who seems to own the donkey is obviously suffering from terrible poverty - for fuck's sake the whole scene here is people searching through garbage heaps, looking for things they can use to survive (whether it be food or clothing or something they might be able to sell, I don't know, they're filmed from a bit of a distance so it's kind of hard to tell).

If your reaction to this is "that poor poor donkey what a horrible evil abusive person" then you need to reconsider your priorities because you are a fucking tool.

So, it's just overloaded and distressed?

I would put "distressed donkey pulling extremely heavy load" under the same heading of "my god this place sucks so bad for everyone and everything that lives there". There's a difference between that and someone deciding their life sucks so they're going to beat the crap out of their donkey for no discernible reason. The latter is abuse; the former is environmental suckiness.

I would argue that when the animal is living under the same conditions as everybody else is, and those conditions are not voluntary, that's not abuse.
