Don't use a passion to cover an unreliable one

Take a look at the big casts of this film: bin Laden, Bush and Hitler, the big casts set off a big title, gave birth to a big doubt, and made the officials open their mouths!
Doubting Christianity, 911, the Federal Reserve, globalization, the media... Doubt everything, this set of skepticism is too grand, the director's intention is good, reflection, rationalism tradition. But his ambitions were too great, trying to disintegrate the rationality of America as a whole in two hours, so that the partial moving power was dispelled by the overall unreliability.
Maybe the "spirit of the times" is unreliable, but you can't use one kind of unreliability to hit another kind of unreliable. This documentary runs through passion, but it makes people feel: the author is dazzled by passion , to overthrow authority, but to establish a new absolute authority of anarchy, is this religious, irrational, no gap, and red-eye method worthy of praise?
There has always been a market for conspiracy theories, and I like to read them. Chinese people are better at this than old Americans. People like to give up their freedom, and at the same time enjoy being told: SB, you are enslaved! Raise revolutionary passion!
Politics, consumerism, mass media... Everyone is in the "discourse" all the time, and there is no escape. "Revolution now" is great, but what can it do?
We can retell history according to a conspiracy logic, but can a person or a group really design history? What kind of historical concept is this?
From one angle, there is conspiracy everywhere, and from another angle, it is a coincidence. It's like: Did God design the world? Or is there a god-like wisdom in the operation of the world?

    Narrator: ...it is just a ride, and we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a choice right now. Between fear... and love.

  • Jordan Maxwell: The more you educate yourself the more you understand where things come from the more obvious things become and you begin to see lies everywhere. You have to know the truth and seek the truth and the truth will set you free.
