Frontier

A highly biased, highly opinionated, one-sided, shallow, and not very thought-provoking viewpoint of the formative years of the United States of America. Virtually every "historian" or "subject matter expert" featured has at least one axe to grind against America and an overwhelming interest in communicating only their narrow, anti-American perspective of the evils of American history. There is always more than one viewpoint when interpreting history, but unfortunately, this "documentary" is too intellectually lazy to even offer up lip service to the importance of the life risking achievements and incredible sacrifices of the individual in America's westward expansion and the creation of American exceptionalism. This "documentary" simply focuses on the conspiratorial evils of the American elites and the America government in the country's westward expansion and sees those everyday individuals who actually risked everything - including their very lives - to make it happen as little more that useful idiots. Mix in heavy doses of the evils of slavery, genocide and rampant capitalism and you have a leftist feast on anti-American hate.
