hi everyone.

Maybe an unusual topic but I would like to profit from all your different profil, experience, origins to have your point of view aboout the movie Zeitgeist, or even movies like the michael moore movies.
I am a student in a Business School and watching these movies made me think a lot.
the problem is that I don't really know what to think about it.
is it true? is it propaganda?
I think it's a bit both but which part are true, which part are overexagerated?

tell me what you think please

From my point of view, Zeitgeist is a cunning mix of truth and lies. The first chapters (the one with religion and the other one) I believe to be true, but that talk about the federal reserve and how a handful of people are making slaves out of all of us is just a pathetic conspiracy theory.
I don't know why they did it, maybe they wanted to shock people.

As for Michael Moore, I don't like that guy at all. He's just making a big fuss out of nothing, because he wants to have a bigger audience so he can make more money for himself.
