My Revised View on Fahrenheit 9/11 (re: R rating)
What I said before re: the R rating wasn't particularly correct. Yeah, it is rather graphic as far as the topics of discuss and some images. I am not talking about the vast conspiracy theories, rather, for example, the idea that young American soldiers get off by killing innocent people.
The funny thing is that while Michael Moore spends a great time with the “shock and awe” of the economically poor soldiers’ murderous games, he also discusses the fact that our military is filled with these same poor souls. So, we are suppose to hate these “baby killers”, but at the same time we are told to feel sorry for them because, with unemployment rates of 50% in their hometowns, their limited career opportunities include enlisting.
No one ever said war was pretty – it isn’t. Unfortunately, many suffer from the victors of a very elite few. The war extends far past the people whose lives are lost to it.
So, which one is it Mr. Moore? I haven’t seen any press releases saying you are pleading all of your income to urban education or workforce development. I say you are part of the problem vs. the solution.
