Could you explain?
I'm wondering if people still support sea world after all the news came out that they abuse their whales. Reports say they are taken away from their families and have severe depression.
Yes. Whole heartedly. Sea World is a great place. Don't believe everything you see in movies.

I think Blackfish is a horribly made radical left wing propaganda piece devoid of actual factual information. It was made, just like the Planned Parenthood videos, to sway low information reactionary simpletons.

Here we go again!
In a lot of cases Sea World does good, but keeping large animals in tiny tanks is not one of them. I know they cannot be set free but even a tank expansion would do them some good.

I was specifically addressing the merits of the film itself. Which has none. Agenda based propaganda films are not interested in truth. They have one goal, and that is to influence ill informed reactionary people. They use incomplete, outdated, and/or factually incorrect information to push their agenda. When they do that, they have zero credibility, and everything included is suspect.
You will be a smarter person if you ignore this type of media.

Yes, but there is a big difference between a documentary and a propaganda film. And that is the use of provable and current facts.
Including business practices the company stopped using 30 years ago, while failing to mention that they stopped using them 30 years ago, is propaganda. Plain and simple. Blackfish does not inform. It incites. Therefore, as an educational tool, it is worthless.

At what point does a animal become large and a tank tiny? Why stop at whales? Are there not other animals at Sea World?

This movie is 3 years old. It has been debated to death. At this point no one changing anyone's mind either way.

So why complain about just the whales? Why not other zoo or aquarium-type facilities beyond Sea World?
Blackfish does not address the issue of animals in captivity. It is a puff piece against a major corporation, without any real insight or intelligence on the very issue it so claims to support.
Never get married then....
In a lot of aspects no... I like that for the most part they are "free range" but it's not ideal.
