Juluri is referring to something specific: the Supreme Court's examination of First Amendment protection of acts of cruelty to animals. None of this does justice to the earth, and our unique place in it as a species which has great privileges and also appropriate responsibilities. They certainly depict cruelty to animals, right?

First, I do think people can either be desensitized to the rampant cruelty depicted in Earthlings, or so terrified of what might happen if they let it affect them that they simply shut down. Are people who work in slaughterhouses and who vivisect their fellow sentient beings evil? Is evil something you do but not who you are?
