But here, when watching it, I just felt like someone wants to sell me an idea, and not facts. Like listening all the time to people who were saying it was **** (because you had mud next to your tent, or because the showers were not functioning, or because people got raped — and it’s all literally just shoved in together)
Sick hangups bro

well, documentaries are supposed to be documents of the time; facts not fiction

So, expecting them to be accurate isn’t much of an expectation
They rarely are though, so it's an unrealistic expectation.
