Here's a comment I made in an older post that I'm adding to this thread. It's a good start but Moore is far from red pilled as it still ends with all the same doom and gloom as any documentary of his does:
It starts out on the right path, that solar and wind can never fully replace traditional energy sources (but the green energy hype made people like the Koch brothers rich), they'll close a coal plant and then open two new gas plants instead, they include burning wood debris as "green, renewable energy", then it touches on the real issues, like overpopulation. But, of course, it never addresses the most over populated areas (fastest growth is in Africa) or where most of the world's pollution is coming from (China) and nuclear energy is not mentioned once. It treats all humans as one "parasite" with no differentiation between countries, but of course mentions how the western world is worse "per capita". It ends with the same fear mongering that we don't have much time left until we experience something catastrophic (without saying what exactly that will be) and then there's sad music playing while monkeys die.
Nothing to disagree with. He produced what might have been a fine documentary, but his lizard brain would not allow him to twist the knife.
Same thing that kept Mitt Romney from being President.
Most people in these fora are not old enough to remember that Michael Moore had a series on prime-time television called TV Nationhttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108951/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_20 years ago. It wasn't bad, and wasn't nearly as Leftist, but it wanted to be...
