The Brainwashing of My Dad (2015)
This documentary hurt
This hits close to home. I have a Uncle who used to epitomize what a good Christian, father and gentle human being. So gentle and highly intelligent. I wanted him to be my father.
That all changed when he began listening to right wing radio and Fox News. He turned into this mean, judgemental sad image of a human being. He had to inject his opinions every chance he had and in a hateful way. It was so depressing, I hoped it was a phase. It wasn't. His hateful comments on my social media posts were too much. I sent him an email basically asking him what happened to the man I used to take comfort being around? He merely responded with right wing hatefulness and couldn't even acknowledge what I was asking.
Anyway, if you deal with friends or family that suddenly took this hateful path, this documentary is for you. It made me sad but also feel I wasn't alone.
