Realism is made to disturb you not to make you feel better about things. You can say they tell it like it is not how you would expect it to be. The man in the story was suffering of being sick and whipped my Convey. Insted of imagining he specifically tells you how he was. "From the crown of my head to my feet, I was covered with blood; my shirt was stiff with blood. My legs and feet were torn in sundry places with briers and thorns, and were also covered with blood. I suppose I looked like a man who had escaped a den of wild beasts, and barely escaped them." This to me was very disturbing, but gave me a complete idea of what it was like being in his shoes.
The Battle with Mr. Convery social issue was slavery. "It was a glorious resurrection, from the tomb of slavery, to the heaven of freedom." This gives you an idea of how this man felt about slavery. Saying from the tomb of slavery is saying it was horrible. Throughout the story he describes how awful it is being a slave and how he didn't want to be one. Luckily we have now changed the laws where we no longer have cruel things like this going on.
