I saw a Truther talking about this new Netflix series yesterday (who said it looks like a White Hat operation), so I thought I'd look into it just to see what it's about. I don't have or watch Netflix, so I don't have an opinion about it one way or the other. Was just curious if anyone has seen it and would like to share your impressions.
Here are a couple of articles about the 6-episode series, which debuted on May 5th:

I think I'd need to watch it all again to pick up on more little nuances, but I didn't come away thinking it was white-hat influenced.
In normal Mike Myers fashion jabs are taken at just about all sides for the semblance of neutrality. And while there are little 'wins' for the conspiracy theorist, like vindication of being right, there wasn't a whole lot of 'red-pill' material. Ultimately, it seemed like a black-hat attempt to cede a little ground while justifying their existence.
To add to this: At their Bilderburg-style event most of the real-life elites are shown in a super friendly light...walking out when the 'villain(s)' are making themselves known and the action becomes shady. Bet you could guess one of the few who stays...yep, Putin. Every world leader is clean except for him seems to be the message.
Now that I've written and thought about it a bit I'm more confident in my last sentence above. Attempt to soften their image and coax some back into the fold.
Oh, then this definitely isn't a White Hat operation if this show is painting Putin as the villain. Appreciate your great recaps!
