Your example is interesting because in retrospect Super Size Me was alarmist and unfair. Morgan Spurlock mislead viewers to believe that his health conditions were caused by McDonalds when they were in fact caused by alcoholism.

Are you claiming that the Social Dilemma was likewise alarmist and unfair?

He didn't but I would. Towards the end of the film, one of the interviewees claims the US is heading for a civil war. The solution? Turn off notifications.

I think what they're "claiming" is that it's worth considering whether that's the case here as well without picking a particular side yet.

Super Size Me was a turning point where the power of dishonest propaganda as "documentary" became a major force in culture.

Super Size Me while dishonest about how bad McD is in just one month, was shooting fish in a barrel.

Waiting for Superman, a charter school infomercial featuring discredited superintendent Michelle Rhee, showed the danger of the form.
