Based on a stolen first draft of the script at the New York Times, Los Angeles Times. Watching a post, all that. They were all going after him. And a conspiracy theorist. And it's a very controversial movie, which takes a lot of risks. And Oliver admitted at the time, he didn't have all the answers, but he wanted to get the questions out there and make people think about some of these issues.

But at that point, he went from being Hollywood's golden boy to being the conspiracy monger.

Because Americans had already disagreed with the Warren Commission. Yes. And even before Oliver's movie came out, the overwhelming majority of Americans thought, didn't think that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. They didn't from the very beginning find that credible at all. In fact, four of the seven members of the Warren Commission didn't think that or thought that there was likely a second gun.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oliver's stressing the economic roots of all this. I do, yes. I wanted to go back, because in 1948, George Kennan lays it out in a secret memo. George Kennan, who was the architect of the Cold War, writes a memo that says, we have 6.3% of the world's population, yet we control 50% of the world's wealth. He said, the challenge before us today is to maintain this position of disparity.

And we're not going to do it with idealistic slogans. We're going to do with pure power concepts. He later regretted that. He later regretted the Mr. X article. And he becomes really very, very worried about the threat of nuclear war in his later life. And he lived to over 100 years old. But In 97, he condemned Clinton.

Economics, it's geopolitics, it's military ideological domination. I don't think it's an either or. Some people make that mistake and say it's this or it's that. I mean, there are a lot of different people involved in planning this, and they're motivated by different things.

So the Cold War comes out of economics, too. It's very much so. The labor movement was huge in the United States in the 30s. The formation of the CIO, the organizing of steel, auto. I mean, all of the big industries were organizing. And who were the leaders of the organizing? The communists.
