I keep watching this. It's just so well-produced, and there's no talking head. Nearly the entire episode is just face time with various parties talking firsthand about their experiences or views on the movement.
I'll admit to being a bit overinterested in the tea party set right now, but that's because last year a bunch of them came from outside our town to inside it and threatened myself and a sixteen-year-old girl with pepper spray over illegal immigration. We happened to be walking by, separately, and saw the protest, went over to talk to them - they were loud and angry already, and I was upset they'd come to our town expressly to be hostile - anyway, one of the women draped her flag over my face, waved pepper spray at me when I pulled it away, then lied about it on a whole bunch of internet news sites covering the incident, saying I'd tried to steal her flag. Some of these people are very, very, very deeply angry and it does distress me.
