    Thumbs up Looking for good doco's on modern society

    Does anyone know of any good documentaries on pretty much whatever
    aspect of modern society?

    One's like Food Inc I guess (already seen food inc.), but on wahtever topic at all really...supermarket food, consumer electronics, labour and slave labour, current wars, science, stuff i cant think of right now.

    Not too sensationalistic is also appreciated .

    Docs are mostly historical and cover hot button topics, so what you want can't be categorically met, but I'd probably start with

    Capitalism: A Love Story

    Jesus Camp

    Why We Fight

    yeah true well id consider made in 1980's+, or covering some topic from the 1980's+ to be modern enough

    Actually a very good documentary.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes
