I should have known better, but I was really hoping (once again) for an informative, unbiased, documentary relating to social media. Unfortunately, this did not deliver.
I will say that some of the content in this documentary was informative and interesting, however it was not very far into this documentary when it became clear to me that it was yet another biased documentary I wasted money on.
Allow me to sum it up for you. This documentary is half providing you with general inside information and half talking about how the extreme "right-wing" used YouTube to indoctrinate people and spread conspiracy theories.
I was REALLY hoping that because they made it a point to mention the "alt-right" so much, that they would, at some point, mention the "alt-left", because being unbiased includes showing both sides, especially as it relates to this documentary. However, they did not. Has the alt-left not capitalized on YouTube and used it in the same way as the alt-right!?!? Of course they have. Just say it. It's a fact. So mention both, or focus on neither.
Maybe you'll like this. Maybe you won't. But I can tell you that if you're looking for an unbiased, informative documentary with absolutely no agenda whatsoever, this isn't it.
