I haven't seen parts 5 and 6 yet (and wont until after work today) but mostly what Im getting is "Individualism is poisonous" in neon flashing lights the size of an ocean liner.

Seems like a lot of his documentaries follow the Mark Fisher capitalist realism line of "nobody has a compelling vision of the future" and the aforementioned corrosive nature of individualism. I'm just here for the montages baby

yeah adam curtis is about the collapse of narratives for the future, a collapse in the belief that politics can improve people lives, and the ways in which the breakdown of any collective solidarity, or even in the concept of a “society” you might have obligations toward, and has obligations toward you, caused this terrible, bewildering present we find ourselves in

adam curtis docs are dreamscape hypnotism that instills those who go into it with an open mind that neoliberalism is loving terrible. open your heart and let him in. you might intellectually know neoliberalism sucks, but adam curtis ensures that you feel it

from what i've watched so far his main idea seems to be that community and solidarity are dead, and everyone is isolated, atomized, scared and confused, and that the idea of giving yourself to a collective cause has been wrecked by individualism

Rewatched Hypernormalisation recently, here for the rare footage and rad soundtracks.

I haven't watched parts 5 and 6 yet, does he mention at any point that Horst Mahler became a Holocaust denier and nazi? Seems somewhat relevant to the interview and the part about the Hitler picture at PFLP summer camp.
