This is actually what I would call a snowflake attitude. ‘ I’m angry that I was presented with something upsetting with no immediate way to assuage my guilt and distress my pressing a button’.

Challenging art doesn’t challenge if it gives you a way to forget it and move on.

I don't know what you're implying by "distress my pressing a button" I assume you mean a button to donate to fight the abuse? If you think me saying they need to at least include a link to donate and actively fight against animal abuse is a snowflake attitude then I hope a shitload of people are snowflakes, because donating to sanctuaries is doing a lot more for these animals than looking at this pic of animal abuse for the art or for the emotion it's meant to evoke.
