Reddit atheist levels of pseudo intellectualism. ...
Literally just propaganda! Nothing else! This doesn't even fit the definition of a documentary. Everything that is said can be proven false by a single Google search. ...
This is not a documentary. It's awful anti-trans propaganda. Matt Walsh is deliberately disingenuous throughout. ...
A propagandistic film coming from an anti-trans viewpoint. Matt Walsh throws out disconnected and unrelated theses as well as misinformation to make trans people and trans medical care look bad, cuts people on the opposing side of his opinion off or doesn't show their entire response, and whenever t ... alking to people he agrees with, it only seems like he's doing it to shut away any counter-argument that could be made during the conversation. However hurtful I found this as a trans person, I still found the film to be funny in its absurdity. Matt Walsh's inner monologues sometimes feel like a parody, an over-satirization of the views of conservative media. especially that whole "who am I" digression at the beginning of the film would have been hilarious had it been on a bit ridiculing Walsh. Don't watch this if you're expecting an informative, unbiased documentary about trans people or women in general. Watch this if you want to see how The Daily Wire (and other media) can warp information and cut footage to turn it in their favor, and influence your opinions by doing so.
