Horseface
1.0

A woke and racist revisionist take on the female members of the inner circle around Jim Jones, complicit in the mass murder of almost 950 people. Watching this, you get the sense that if Hess, Göbbels, Höss, and the other lackeys of the Nazi machine were women, the people behind this documentary ... wouldn't have had time to make it, they'd be busy making a documentary on how they were innocent victims of Hitler and had no responsibility for their actions. Or, if Hitler were a woman, how she'd, too, been a victim of some other contemporary straight white male. The women around Jim Jones were opportunistic selfish whoring hedonists, breaking up their own families and friendships to get a chance at a successful sociopath's dick. They were complicit and active participants in the murder of almost a thousand people, but according to this revisionist piece of trash, they were simply victims of another straight white male demon, selflessly seeking "social justice" and "race equality." The truth is that this cancerous piece of documentary filmmaking is another cog in the racist revisionist woke machine that is leaving Martin Luther King Jr. spinning ever faster in his grave. If you want to truly understand how a person - any person, regardless of race and gender - comes to be complicit in mass murderous atrocities, read Ordinary Men by Christopher Browning. Don't watch this garbage.
