Fahrenheit 11/9

I with pleasure was watching Michael Moore’s films where he was telling about corporations (Roger & Me and my favorite Big One.) and their everywhere influence (as in health care system in Sicko.) in the United States, was looking for reasons in often happening shootings in his homeland country (Bowling for Columbine.) and observed George W. Bush presidency (his famous, but somewhere controversial from my side, Fahrenheit 9/11.). Usually I agree with him, but sometimes my opinion was differ. It were until Capitalism: A Love Story where Moore surprised me in his view on Barack Obama where he was shown as independent and incorruptible from any man and corporation. In this moment, a director preferred his political tastes than be an objective. I’m not against Moore’s passion to socialism… yeah, in the Western European’s form, not in the Soviet and their allied countries meanings as the director says in this film, but never tell about what you don’t know or maybe you tried to misinform us, Mister Moore? I missed Where to Invade Next, but perhaps I should have watched for in what form the director made film about how socialism is great. Nothing good I was expecting from Michael Moore in TrumpLand and was right. In this flick, where much time looked as stand-up comedy, Moore couldn’t proof his position and even did the worst thing. He used intimidate method for audience in hall when showed a video of news program on variation “If Trump will win the election”: it will a dark day for the United States, Trump will be the last president of this country and he will start a war with Mexico. This propaganda style reminds the Soviet Union and their socialistic allies, which comes from modern Russia now. This kind of socialism choosing Michael Moore.

 

Of course, I didn’t expect any good from “Fahrenheit 11/9”. From a title, on what author tried to repeat his success, but, fortunately, it didn’t happen. Moore promised exposing film about Donald Trump where he will also tell about secret of his winning, any survival and why he is so dangerous.

The director stays only on merciless position to the acting US president. Often appearance of Trump comes with music of classical tragedy. The director allows to give a characteristic as “It looked like a perp walk” and his facts to theory, that Trump didn’t planned to be a president, Moore corroborates own conspiracy addition about Gwen Stefani, which got more money as a judge on The Voice, than Trump earned on The Apprentice, of what the director reasons in form that businessman had thoughts “Fuck Gwen Stefani. Fuck NBC. I’m going to be king of the world”. This’s not serious! I don’t see facts. Only superficial express of own hatred. I wrote before in one article why Trump won and I’ll repeat it. I willn’t touch his try to be a candidate from Reform Party in 2000. He seriously planned it in 2012, but did wise, because it’s too risky fight against man who’s going on second term. In 2016, Trump originally planned to run as independent candidate, but he didn’t repeat Ross Perot’s mistake in 1992. If you want to have big chances – you must represent one of two main US parties, which he did. About money I want to remind – he is a billionaire. He lost hundred millions in time of his campaign and relinquished from president’s salary. In some things Moore didn’t try proof, but seeds, that audience had a suspicious as, for example, Trump can go on incest. Also Moore calls racist the man who supported accused in rape Mike Tyson and pardoned Jack Johnson, when his predecessor with same color of skin Barack Obama didn’t approve this request. Michael Moore’s approach in telling was taking out words from context and was editing materials in his way.

Not whole film content about Moore’s attack on Donald Trump. Very fast the director goes to other topics: surprisingly happened in him hometown Flint water crisis, school shooting in Parkland with emerged by students gun control question, doubts in Clinton’s victory on primaries, teachers’ strikes around of country. Moore devotes much time on every on them and film was starting to look more about water crisis than expose of Donald Trump. Moore blames some Republican governors as a whole party. Also he gives his booing to capitalism. I’m very glad, that Hillary Clinton lost election, but I still not see confirmation on stolen voices. Moore’s arguments lies in woman with poster and results on simple paper, which I can print myself. I prefer more serious things for proofs. Once Moore was making his bases on social polls. I can’t rely on this thing, because you can ask thousand men in one district, do same in other and get totally different results. I understand if ask all workers on factory – here you will get results and representation. Pre-election polls always gave high percent to Hillary. Talking about missis Clinton, Moore gave some criticize to her and, of course this his choice, but I would be tale about Clinton Foundation and uranium dial with Russian…oops, that’s right!

The Democratic Party gets Moore’s attack on members, which haven’t socialist views. Moore’s acclaim to Obama in “Capitalism: A Love Story” changes here on criticism that he’s same capitalist. A filmmaker has an one-side look on things. He doesn’t criticize behavior of screaming women on Trump’s speech, because they’re sharing his views.

In the last part, Moore returns to the US president. I unlucky tried to find a source of quote “I am the Storm”, because the filmmaker restricted on “Once he said”. I felt too fiction in text. Then Moore goes to intimidating expressed in senseless comparison Donald Trump with Adolf Hitler. Moore was trying to find common facts. I will also successful if retrieve common elements between Nazism and socialism. The director turns all president Trump’s actions to catastrophe. Not about successes in economic, jobless and doesn’t go further why president against, for example, Obamacare – when any man, even healthy, must pay 500 dollars and how hard to find a doctor accepting this insurance. Moore didn’t rise and discuss any alternative, which has Trump to those cancels. No, the director gives a feel, that school shooting is president’s guilty and it didn’t happen before. In the end, Moore again calls to revolution.

No far time ago, it was the 80th Anniversary, I’ve listened famous Orson Welles’s reading of “The War of the Worlds”. I imagined this time, where I sitting in one-story home and listening radio somewhere in Middle, and I felt of how shown in news form story frightened America. In “Bowling for Columbine” Moore called the television as a reason in gun shootings, because it creates atmosphere of fear. Last years he makes same by his films and interviews. He’s misinforming people and his “Fahrenheit 11/9” is product of disinformation.
