Don’t think I need to see a documentary to learn what is already obvious. Of course the 1% are obsessed with wealth and power, and have no qualms about exploiting workers. Otherwise they wouldn’t horde obscene amounts of wealth while children starve, etc.

Is absolutely worth watching. If only to validate much of what you already suspect is true.

Most of this will not be a surprise. But it’s important to have it documented on camera.

One thing that became obvious to me after watching both documentaries by this guy is that they can be pretty honest and it really has no effect on how they are perceived in public.

The sides never change. You either hate them or want to be like them.

As @[email protected] mentioned, this doc is worth seeing, because they were much more candid when speaking with one of 'their own' than with a regular journalist. It's incredible to see them fully 'mask-off' of how they truly do view us, and how deep their lack of empathy is.
