It's super-acerbic and has every type of gruesome image deserving of every content warning. Watch it if you want to see someone insult the US and capitalism with disgust for 90 minutes. Reminds me of the documentary film Starsuckers in how apparently angry it is at the world.

Also has some bangers like calling the creation of the "tween" demographic "corporate paedophilia" and others.

    Documentary tone for an anti-capitalist movie works best, in my opinion, when it is less angry than mournful.

    Like, by all means, interview people who are angry. But the tone should be sad, to emphasize frustration and persecution, not furious. Not for a long form piece, anyway.

    Then you pivot to hopefulness, while pitching your remedy. Your call to action needs to be positive and upbeat. Triumphant.

    That makes for much better propaganda, in my head.

      Hate is almost never talked about as appropriate, healthy, or necessary in liberal-democratic society. For conservatives, liberals, and socialists alike, hate itself is the thing to reject, uproot, defeat, and cast out of the soul. Yet anti-hate ideology doesn’t seem to involve targeting its root causes and points of production, nor does it address the inevitability of or the demand – the need – for hate in a class society.

        Hate in the powerful is vulgar and alienating. Hate in the weak is impotent and exhausting.

        The big appeal of Communism has always been its Utopian promise of a brighter future. And while a hatred aimed at the people who hold us back from a better world is appropriate, the primary focus needs to be in the belief that better things are possible.

        I feel this statement wrt "anti-hate" as more of a wet blanket than any kind of social justice. But I also see what happens on the right when everyone is encouraged to hate with abandon. Its a perpetually imploding mess.
