Indivisible: Healing Hate

I live in the UK and I have been watching American Politics for the last 10-Years. I've seen how the Democrats have change and how they have divided America by pitting Democrats, BLM against Republicans with Conservative and centrist, left, Right values.

I have to say, this is a one sided view of what happened that day, without the full facts of what really happened as there yet to come to light, but how can the truth be unveiled when you have Democrats withholding and hiding documents and their reasons for their actions?

This is your typical Democrat Propaganda, spreading hate in the hope it'll continue to divide the US.

Your All Americans and Russia, China, Iran are watching you destroy each other, and this Frelling scares me!... American is supposed to be the Beacon of Democracy, Liberty & Freedom for the world.

All we see across the pond is It's either Democrat or Republican, Black or White, Win or Lose,... you've turned your political system into a sport and its begun to tear America apart from within the Institutions that are supposed to protect ALL American people.

I fear your Enemies are and will take advantage and Biden clearly doesn't see the reality for what it is!

Pretty good. Sadly my family went through this once they started watching Fox News and started believing what they saw. I wish they would watch this, so they could see how they come across. The rating are misleading, if you review the 1 Star ratings you will see one gave the Thanksgiving Day Parade 1 Star for not representing enough "Christian Values." The documentary Day of Rage: How Trump Supporters Took the U. S. Capitol, has much higher ratings, but is the same subject matter.

I don't write reviews normally. I wanted to like this, to understand how someone ends up in a hate group, but where are the far right groups? We can't heal any divide by pointing out that one side hates. Hatred is awake and well on both ends of the political spectrum. Maybe someone could take an honest look at how we got here, and open a dialogue instead of pointing fingers.

There are parts of this documentary that are insightful. To listen to people who were members of hate groups speak of how they became a part of the group was helpful. We are all swayed by the company we keep, and the mob mentally can be deadly.

5 stars for telling half the story.

Most of the reviews on here reflect biased outrage by a population of individuals who are unable to perform critical thinking and confuse facts and opinions. The low rating is itself a symptom of the division this show highlights. The fact is (and verifiable primary source research supports) never before has a political party in this nation explicitly endorsed violence, no matter what the memes and cartoons flooding your timeline suggest. This documentary chronicles the history and lineage of hate groups that led to January 6th. It's a difficult and deeply important story to hear if our democracy matters to you.

Part of the fundamental problem in today's society is we seek out confirmation bias, almost as a lifeline to our own sanity. Which explains why there are so many polar responses to this mini-series. You can infer the political party of the critic based solely on the number of stars given. 10 Stars = Democrat, 1 star = Trump Republican. Make no mistake about it, their political views cloud their opinion.

But for those of us that might not think of our party as the absolute epitome of morality, or are independent, the absoluism can be a bit less convoluted.

The series begins with telling the tale of an ex-skinhead trying to make sense of his past, one that saw him utterly fail in his hate crime against a synagogue where he was arrested and sent to jail for his crimes.

Throughout the series it returns to his disillusionment about what being a part of the arian nation means.

In the meantime it weaves national news story after national news story that have entranced the country for years, and examines how they are connected in a fundamental way that even the participants might not fully comprehend or understand.

It examines how the flow of news we choose to to view shapes our very understanding of the story itself.

It manages to string together a narrative of wildly diverging stories from the past several decades into one that actually makes sense.

It is a good examination for those looking to understand the events of Jan 6 beyond simply a coup attempt by Trump.

It examines what Trump was tapping into and relying upon in his attempt, and it's much deeper than him simply attempting to usurp power.

The journey is well worth the time to explore.
