All of Wall Street is run by women

A documentary, so you'd think it'd just be facts, names and numbers. But there is a subtle, persistent slathering of feminist inclusionism that so permeates the documentary you'll be rolling your eyes halfway through the first episode.

For one, the documentarians only chose to interview female traders.
In addition, all of the re-enactments are populated overwhelmingly by women. If there is a man, he's getting talked down to by his female boss. You can tell that the director / producer is subtly trying to rewrite the 70's and 80's Wall Street as being a feminazi powerhouse, and it's laughable.

The actual key figures who give out information like the whos, whens and whys are, of course, men. Because that's how it really was.
The story itself isn't shredded by identity politics, so if you can wade through the whiny girl voices you can find a semblance of big picture in there. Just those stupid re-enactments.

I'm a chick, but it irks me to no end when they do this. Their message ultimately ends up being, "you wanna be a mob boss? Make sure you have no tits in your outfit. Ultimately they're going to be the unreliable sell outs and tattle-tales to woke-ass companies like Netflix."
