    Informative

    I give this 10 stars not necessarily because the production is anything fantastic, but because this was very informative. Candace Owens covers the stories that the mass media does not want to. BLM stole millions of dollars from supporters by spending lavishly on themselves (yes be wary of anything called a "non-profit", they show no profit but they pay their staff ridiculous salaries or embezzle most of the money, this is why i do not give to many "non-profit" organizations that enrich their staff instead of demanding volunteerism of their own ownership). But BLM is not even a charity, it was a scam, as revealed in this film. Look at where the BLM owners live today, in houses and properties worth millions. Anyone who gave money and time to BLM just enriched people underserving of their charity. Companies that give to BLM should be ashamed.

    The George Floyd story is sad but the entire truth needed to come out, which this documentary achieves in doing. This is investigative journalism, something lacking the past 2 decades because of the political control of mass media mostly by the Democrat party. We do not have journalists anymore in the mass media, just political pundits expressing their biases. We need more Candace Owens type investigative journalism, and less political opinionated punditry in those pretending to be journalists.

    Why can't we just be truthful?

    This documentary is depressing and enlightening all at the same time. Depressing because you realize the tragedies of the world, how bad consequences come from bad actions, how otherwise well meaning people can get their name twisted and lied to in the media to convert an entire nation to an untruthful narrative. Enlightening because you are shown the truth. It is literally laid in front of you on the screen, without apology. You realize just how much you were lied to, and the effort that went into that lie.

    My question after watching this is why... Just... WHY can't the media care about the truth anymore? Why is it about narratives? Why is it about a money grab. Why do we need to rely on small market journalism like the Daily Wire to get truthful information about what is happening in the world?

    If anything, this documentary reveals the greed of the media and political activist organizations, and it shows the lives of people they ruin to feed their greed.

    Previous post deleted- Seems fishy

    I never thought I would see the day that one of my comments would be removed. I posted before about how much I liked this documentary, but mysteriously my last review was deleted without any notification about when or why it was taken down.

    So I guess I will just say what I said before. This documentary is very simple. All Candace does is ask questions and the hostile reactions she is getting is telling. This documentary does not spread any hate it only seeks to find answers. Judge for yourself whether this is worth something. And if this post gets taken down again I guess we know that someone truly is trying to censor certain reviews. And in that case I will just write another review.

    Don't be ashamed to abandon BLM.

    Candace Owens answers the question that skeptics have never stopped asking, a question which donors are too ashamed to ask out loud: What has BLM done with all the money?

    Other questions also feature: Is Derek Chauvin truly guilty?

    Is the true story of George Floyd being told?

    How has BLM impacted black communities?

    Why do celebrities support looters?

    Why do Democrats seem to love racial turmoil?

    And why is there such a strong tie between BLM and transgender ideologues?

    We don't get all the answers. We don't even get to see where most of the money went. But the portion we do see is alarming. The answers we do get are game-changing. And Candace Owens proves again to be best suited to pose the questions that linger.

    Candace has produced a full picture of the rise of BLM, and as communities awaken to the scam, as donors demand answers - such a picture will aid in its ultimate fall. Poignant, straightforward, well-paced, and witty, Greatest Lie is the documentary that no one else was willing to make, but that all of us needed - some passionately, some secretly, and others who will only realize it when they see it.

    Ready for part 2!

    This documentary was extremely educational. Hilarious what the 7 year old said "So they think the police made a mistake and that's why they are taking things from Target?" LOL Amazing. It's funny what mob mentality makes people do. It's definitely a documentary not just about what BLM did the millions they received (spoiler: nothing to actually help black people), but also human psychology and the effect that the media has on all of us. Patrisse Cullors needs to be investigated for money laundering, at a minimum. I don't know what else to call purchasing a home for 3 million and selling it to the organization that you founded for 6 million. In the end, it seems the money mostly went to herself, her family, and her friends. Oh, and the trans activists too - because nothing says Black Lives Matter more than donating to trans rights organizations - who knew?! LOL 🤦‍♀️
