I can’t seem to stop watching things that confirm how screwed up the world is. Although Michael Moore’s known for laying it on nice & thick. This outing sees him looking at the US of A and analysing what happened in the 2016 Presidential election – why & how Trump got voted in, and how Hilary lost out, and made lots of parallels with the rise of Trump and the rise of Adolf Hitler. Never one to deal solely in the macro, he also dives into the Flint water crisis and draws allegories and connections with the state of the country at large. I don’t know why I watched this – whether to learn more detail about the US’s political and domestic situation, or to play to my confirmation bias. This did both.
