Started watching the new Michael Moore doc. Opening narration has some serious “humans are the virus” vibes. This is gonna be a thing 😒
Who is this middle aged white man trying to make me interested in his entirely uninteresting journey into environmentalism
I’m fifteen minutes in and I’m already pretty sure the thesis of this doc is “we’re failing on climate bc big green groups don’t try hard enough / are too politically compromised” like that has ever been the problem at all.

Will update if anything changes.
I’m taking a break. This guy is cherry picking information all over the place in order to amplify his SHOCKING revelations like the fact that solar panels don’t last for an eternity.

Also, he’s a massive bore.
So I started watching it again. After another five minutes I turn to my husband and said “I bet this guy’s shocking revelation is going to be there are too many humans on Earth.”

Ten minutes later we are talking about fucking population control
I’m an hour in and at least six different middle aged LL Bean clad white men have asserted that the problem is “individual consumption” or “too many humans”
