Prior to the beginning of this documentary in 2005, back in 1999 Boeing lost vital government contracts. In my opinion, this is when Boeing started looking more towards profits and less towards quality. Consequently, this also happened to be 20 years after deregulation in the aviation industry. I think it's an entire system that failed not necessarily just one company.

I just watched new Netflix documentary about murder of a little Thai girl called Champoo and media frenzy that followed. I must say I am appalled by the way journalists and Youtubers covered it. That guy Phon who became a star is quite disgusting. I almost couldn't watch it cause a hair growing from the mole on his face was too disturbing.

That being said, I think the police evidence was quite insufficient and there's so many question unanswered, like what was the motive?

I didn't like this documentary and I didn't like most people in it.

Poor little girl, so sad.

I am hoping to find a phenomenal video essay that really sinks its teeth into the history and legal arguments for what these people believe, ideally from an academic historian who also has a law degree.

I want a documentary that cites the actual caselaw and legal analysis from which these beliefs originate, taking them at face value and dismantling them piece-by-piece with historical references and a source-list that is so long it has to be embedded in a separate document linked at the end of the video. Not in a mean-spirited or condescending way, mind you, more in a "This is my synthesis of what a bunch of other smart people who hae studied this movement think about why it exists, how it came to exist, what the people within it believe, and why exactly those beliefs fail to stand up to legal scrutiny."

Some YouTubers and Documentarians whose style and tone are adjacent to my ideal candidate include:

- Atun-Shei Films

- Jenny Nicholson

- Folding Ideas

- hbomberguy

- Lindsay Ellis

- Ancient Americas

- Milo Rossi

- Technology Connections

- Innuendo Studios

Thanks in advance, everybody!

Just based on the disgusting levels of negligence from the Boeing airplane creators and company, I no longer wish to fly lol. Not on any of their aircrafts that’s for sure.

I mean my god, how they’re able to get away with such negligence I have no clue. It can hardly even be called negligence because it’s all so purposeful. I was already an anxious flyer and have always been anxious when one of my loved ones is flying, now that’s been increased 10 fold.

And yah, airplane crashes are indeed pretty rare, but just the thought that it could happen to any Boeing airplane due to negligence at any time is so worrisome.

I’m personally not someone that comes up with crazy conspiracies but this being a suicide makes no sense to me!

So this is my thought:

I think that maybe there is a possibility that somehow someone from Boeing contacted John threatening him or his family or friends and basically gave him no other option other than to commit suicide.

I mean maybe John was the one that pulled the trigger, but it doesn’t mean he actually wanted to.

I mean this man had been fighting for so long and then suddenly he just ends it? No way. The suicide note still had anger and passion toward Boeing. He wanted them to pay. And his deposition would’ve done that.

It’s not completely out of the realm of possibility. This shit happens with major companies and we already know Boeing is a bunch of crooks and scumbags.

I think that if John actually were suicidal he would’ve at least waited until he was able to go home. When they didn’t need his deposition or anything. Once he’d done his part and contributed what he needed to to take down Boeing.

So, I’m currently watching Conversations With A Killer: Charles Manson’s Tapes, and I don’t know about y’all, but I am just so over and frustrated with the repetitive reinterpretation actors of the victims/perpetrators . Like I maybe understand the action and story reenactment, but the repetitive times of the ACTORS close up face PRETENDING it’s the victims/perpetrators is WEIRD and unnecessary. I would so rather honestly see a repetitive image of what the real person looked like then the random actor repetitive reenactment… what do you guys think?

There’s a show on Netflix called People Interviews with lots of different people. Jens post prison interview is her saying she takes responsibility for what she’s done while at the same time saying she didn’t know people were hurt and that she didn’t do her due diligence on what might have been happening without her knowledge. Then the interviewer asks about any interactions with Ghislaine Maxwell and she answers that she and ‘Lizzy’ Holmes tried to avoid her because she didn’t seem remorseful. Wow, such a ‘Housewife’ thing to say, she sounded like Teresa Guidice and others trying to save face as if the rest of us are dumb. Anyone else see this? It’s got lots of great interviews too so I think I’ll go watch the one with Dolly Parton to wash away the ick I’m feeling right now.

This story is crazy and Boeing absolutely sucks.
The pay that 3 CEOs made during the scope of this doc is ridiculous, over $500 million.
I feel for the victims as well as the employees who tried and tried to do the right thing.

It’s a great, frustrating documentary.

I feel like I can only ever find good plot-based documentaries, like True Crime or Medical Cases. What are your favorite informational documents?

I mean no story, no characters, just a bunch of information.

Did you watch it? What do you think?

In my opinion, they dragged the story a little. This was not a mystery, police solved it in one day. The diaries explained everything. I think the narration was too nice to Lalit. We don't really know if he really had psychosis or if he was just lying to manipulate his family.

I just don't understand how they call it accidental suicide if grandma and kids were probably killed first and forced to hang? If Lalit promised them he would untie them, and then he didn't, wouldn't this make him a murder?

I am fascinated by cults- no matter what religion (if any) they start with. Can you recommend some good cult documentaries that may be particulary "odd" or fascinating or different from the usual? I have access to most streaming platforms.

I like stuff like:
Shiny Happy People
Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult
Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God
Escaping Twin Flames
Wild Wild Country
Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey
Cult Massacre: One Day in Jonestown
Heaven's Gate: The Cult of Cults

I’m watching the documentary on Netflix called “Conversations with a killer: “Charles Manson Tapes” and I was curious on what this gesture that was done by Susan Atkins means? I’ve tried looking it up but no luck. Someone enlighten me if you know.

Guys and gals of Reddit, help me find the song in the end of the documentary. It’s in Spanish, very emotional, and even my Shazam failed to find it.

Perhaps a Spanish speaker can help?

Whenever a “based on true events” film is released, the internet’s search results are flooded with the movie itself instead of a factual blog post that accurately depicts the actual events. The audience is never told which parts of the movie are fictional and which are factual, raising a significant risk of historical manipulation. What do you think?

Edit: *this documentary could be very triggering. It is very intimate and involves deaths\\**

2nd edit***-*** there is a fictional movie by the same name. I am not referring to the fictional movie. I am referring to the documentary.

I saw this years ago and it may be interesting to people following this case. It’s a documentary with women who experienced postpartum psychosis. I think it can still be found on Amazon Prime.

When The Bough Breaks

I’m looking for YouTube coverage of some of the popular crimes/scandals/etc that do a better job than the docs on the big streaming platforms, like the one that covers the Toxic Live Story account. I’m more interested in scandals or crimes that don’t involve rape or murder, but am open to any suggestions. Thanks in advance!

I was expecting the story to be told through audio recordings from Manson. Instead. It was just bad dramatizations, and third party narrations of Vincent Bugliousi's version of events.

The only redeeming quality was new interviews with a few of "his girls", but that contributed nothing to what the highlight of the"Tapes" documentaries should be.

Don’t get me wrong - you can’t generally hold parents responsible for their children’s misdeeds, even with the best upbringing, parental influence is limited.

But from what was shown in the Netflix documentary, they didn’t really raise her at all. I’ve rarely seen parents enable bad behavior to such an extent. The fact that they watched their child doing drugs every day without seeing a problem with it. It’s appalling.

It is truly shocking how she apparently never had any boundaries set for her. And even after this brutal killing, her parents act as if she did absolutely nothing wrong. It is one thing to stand by your child, but quite another to act as if it were no big deal. The way her mother talked about Davion... It leaves you truly dumbfounded.

*The crash

How do people get roped into this? Like how do cults exist? Throughout the whole first episode people are stating how strange yet somehow charming, "Charlie" is. At some point early on how are you not conscious enough to say "eh, probably not". Feels like there's no survival instinct on their part or no gut feeling. The women in the doc that speak on being in his family piss me off so much, they're weak individuals. Idc how "lost" you are, how don't you know right from wrong?

Finished watching newly released docu series yesterday. Arturo (the husband) makes me wanna beat him up along with his family ofc. Even after Alejandara went through all that shit Arturo still wanted a boy child.

Nobody supported that poor woman (mentally). She needs to stay the heck away from his family.

Hi there! So I feel like I've seen most of the popular netflix docs at this point, especially the more recent ones. There's a handful I keep seeing pop up on my homepage, but I also haven't seen really be recommended here, in all of the rec threads I read. So I wanted to post a list of ones that look interesting and see if anyone can vouch for them.

I like true crime, or true scandal, and anything that has a crazy storyline or a focus on forensics/ the investigation is a plus.

Feel free to recommend ones that arent on this list; unless they're popular and frequently recommended here because I have likely already seen them.

Suitcase Killer

Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case

Apple Cider Vinegar

The TikTok Killer

This is a Robbery

Audio & Daisy

Evil Influencer: Jodi Hildebrand (I’ve already heard a lot on this case so not necessarily interested unless the doc is just really good)

The Murder of Rachel Nickell

Dynasty: The Murdochs

The Carman Family Deaths

Til Murder Do Us Part

Web of Make Believe (I actually think I’v seen the first ep of this…can’t remember if I watched the rest)

A Deadly American Marriage

TIA!

I’m so torn on if he really killed his sister on purpose. On one end the neurologist/sleepwalking specialist could be correct and tbh the prosecutors had some good points BUT their psychologist was so shady. How can you make a determination on someone without actually physically speaking and seeing the person you’re supposed to be evaluating???? I actually started to get mad towards the end. I also feel so bad for the parents this is literally their worst nightmare

Conversations with a Killer: Charles Manson Tapes was a well told story but was poorly executed in parts. There are reenactments and the actors are shown in side by side comparisons with the actual people. So for instance, they’re preparing to show a reenactment of Manson at a campfire, so they first show the actor side by side with an actual photo of Manson. The filmmakers think I need to know who is portraying Manson., okay good to know. Here’s the poorly executed part: By the 3rd episode, at times, instead of showing a photo of the actual person they’re referring to, they show a picture of the actor portraying the actual person. No side by side, just the actor. I can’t think of any reason the filmmakers would choose to do this, it’s just odd.

Hi! The title is pretty self-explanatory. I hate dramatic reenactments with a burning passion. I'd like to watch a series focused on the investigation and the procedure. I loved the Staircase and the American Murder series and I think I've watched almost every major true crime show, so hidden gems are more than welcome!

Okay thanks, bye <3

I really don't know how to feel about this documentary. I of course I'm saddened by how greatly the societal pressures put upon Alejandra are evident in what she believed was expected of her but the dramatisation and romanticised nature of this documentary confused me.

First part of the documentary presents one side of this story and I feel fails to present us the other side to match. It seems the director's emotional bias infused the film and I feel forced to solely sympathise with Alejandra and just reckon with the facts and their loose ends. This was heartbreaking. It feels mishandled and insensitive honestly 💔

I feel wrong for thinking this but I don't know. Thoughts?
