as someone who's actually from flint, he's not a good person. he hates corporations with a passion and was sniffing around for a story for years before he made the movie. he's hated in this town for being an opportunist. fisher body closed down in large part because gm decided to do away with their old (stupid) structure of having multiple different corporations do the same thing. it was a waste of resources. case in point, the building he visits was situated on the other side of town and gm had to ship finished car bodies all the way to the buick site over i-475 by truck. when they rebuilt buick into buick city, all of this was integrated on site. yeah it sucked for some people, but it was really inefficient. when gm closed buick city and spun-off chevrolet and ac-delco in retaliation against the uaw, where was michael moore? nowhere. he didn't give a flying fuck. that said, he's not wrong this election or what it says about americans.
