I don't usually like crossposting comments, but Reddit had a terrific response to this:
"Thank you Michael Moore, for contributing to the ongoing cartoonization of complex ideas into child sized, black and white morality plays. You and Glenn Beck do wonderful work nurturing our collective stupidity in the face of overwhelming opposition from such overrated concepts like moderation, and rationality, and calm discourse.
"We will continue to do our part to fake educated understanding, root for our own particular political persuasion, and demonize the opposing side till our only common trait with them is coincidental shared geography. Only then will the founding fathers' vision of a polarized, unstable collection of poorly governed states come to fruition."
Michael Moore oversimplifies problems to the point where his solutions are just as poorly-wrought. (Of course, here I go oversimplifying Moore, so...)
