Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.

He did Bowling for Columbine and Super Size Me. Was a Democratic darling because a lot of the sacred cows he went after were on the right, like gun control.
He also predicted Trumps 2016 election:

"the film argues that electric cars and solar energy are unreliable and rely upon fossil fuels to function. It also attacks figures including Al Gore for bolstering corporations that push flawed technologies over real solutions to the climate crisis."
That just sounds like facts everyone agrees upon, the problem is just that climate change deniers are going to take that to mean that we shouldn't be doing something, when really we need to get more renewable and more clean energy to ensure that electric cars are more green, to make sure that solar is in places where it is most effective, to ensure that Al Gore doesn't make too much money with bullshit....
The only legitimate argument against renewable energy is that its energy density simply isn't high enough and will never be high enough. Fossil fuels were about 4 to 5 times more energy dense than renewables 10 years ago and the figures have barely budged since then despite massive investment. Literally every fossil fuel is more energy dense than every type of renewable.
Nuclear is simply the only option.

I don't think he's tearing down green, so much as attacking the smoke and mirrors companies use to prove their green bona fide's to consumers and investors, while really not doing that much for the environment.

Moore doesn't come off to me as someone who punches down, so I'd give him the benefit of the doubt that some of his arguments have merit. I don't think anyone doubts that corporations and that kind of schilling are really putting the future of the world in front of their profits.
Still, what I wonder is if this is actually about the individuals and the organizations that are the problems, or the science itself? In which case, I'd lean towards the scientist knowing way more than this guy
he tries to make out that capilism is a system of exploitation. Then does interviews with bernie sanders and people who're suffering to justify his statement. I disagree. I think it's right to capitalize.

Oh yeah that idea is wretched poison and based off of the labor theory of value, as opposed to the subjective theory of labor.
Labor theory of value = pay guy who cut down tree with a butter knife, because he worked really hard.
Subjective theory of value= pay guy with chainsaw, because he can cut down a tree quickly and safely.
Most people who follow the exploitation line also think there's a finite amount of value/money in the world, which is just factually incorrect.
Also, alot of American billionaires are crooked, but only because they're on welfare. By welfare I mean billion dollar bail outs.
If a company can't provide value to the customers, it should shut down.
To me Moore's opinion on capitalism is commie as hell, so I would be pleasantly surprised if Moore used a bunch of typically conservative talking points to base green energy.
At the same time, if that is the case that he disparages the current state of green energy it could mean he just likes to wear his anti establishment badge, so he can feel like a punko guerilla film maker
Either way he should lose weight if he's gonna be in front of the camera so much.
It's hard to take anti-capitalism messages seriously from a guy who made enough money complaining about capitalism to form his own Scrooge McDuck money pit.
