For about half a year, Emperor Tigerstar and I have been watching and reacting to decades of propaganda videos. The craziest attempt at history we'd watched in this series was the 2016 documentary, Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party. This separate video was not only warranted because of the movie’s hilariously inept attempt at “history” or the sheer amount of dishonesty it contains, but its current usage for denying history. In a way, this episode is kinda a debunk, but it's also an exploration of the documentary’s artistic value and the director’s strange obsessions. Dinesh D’Souza seems to believe his own disinformation and he’s managed to persuade enough lunatics into denying the party switch that it’s a real menace. I've put some care into editing it down and adding some entertainment.
