" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A well balanced account of what really went down at Branch Davidian, the result of which has reverberated throughout the years to the present, with white nationalism, domestic terrorism and the far right mindset. Yet another doc that confirms authority systems and enforcement agencies have no idea what they’re doing. If handled with more cooperation between agencies in a transparent, honest and well considered manner perhaps we wouldn’t be quite so sociopolitically f*cked now. This quote perfectly resonates for the unnecessary destructive outcome of the 51 day standoff resulting in 80+ horrific deaths: “Communication and empathy will always be far more effective tools than force and violence.”"
"Shocking. "

"Even if you've seen other Waco documentaries, there is something new for you here - the footage is unbelievable. It also has interviews with members of the negotiation team and the combat team, and SURPRISE the two are often at odds in ways that feel relatable. We also meet a survivor who is obviously still brainwashed. An excellent psychological study!"
