As someone who’s gone down the rabbit hole fairly deeply, the second film is more nuanced and detailed, so more satisfying to me. To MamaHen’s point: the first film is more bullet points and can sound propagandistic to the ideologically motivated, and therefore easier to dismiss. The evidence and accompanying references in film 2 make for a more nuanced experience. I’m thinking of the people I’d want to send them to and trying to predict what kind of reactions they will elicit. I expect I may have to say “yeah but watch the second film, it explains all that!”
These are both brilliant! I think video #2 (The Evidence) might be better as an intro. Video #1 (What's Going On?) is excellent but may be too big a red pill for your average normie to swallow.
yes, good, and.... a bit like the first video: maybe a little fast paced (go america!) as supercomplex issues are super summarized. and some clips/inserts might only illuminate the point if you already understand the issues. eg the clips from levine, angle, barnes, cole, the guy claiming '[GAC]... saves lives'. yes - i get the point but the lack of context and no introduction of the speakers could just be confusing. these clips highlight the strongly different claims, but to the lay observer - who are these people? why did they say that? what's the point?
thanks for your work and looking forward to the next film...

First hands down. covers more territory and emphasizes the cultural underpinnings.
