I thought it was going to be a series, and that the doc was just episode one. It barely scratched the surface. I was like “that was IT?” Maybe because people pulled out and she had no material? It was just a sliver of nothing.

So so bad - I’m surprised HBO released it at all.

These girls are so pathetically insecure. It was painful to watch.

I thought Isabelle was a little affected, but I'm an ADPi and gotta admit I was excited for her. Brought bad some memories, including the one girl she just "clicked" with, which is why I went ADPi. Have fun Isabelle!

I couldn't figure out what Mikayla was doing/thinking, and her friend Holliday, hoo boy.

Too bad Shelby dropped out. She seemed like such a fish out of water in Illinois, but perfectly suited for Univ. Alabama.

I was pretty underwhelmed by the filmmaker's story, TBH. It seemed obvious that she lost so much content that she had to "cast" herself.


+1. We just finished watching. The filmmaker is clearly attributing her trauma to rush week during college, when it’s really from a lifetime of emotional pain living with her alopecia. There was nothing scandalous portrayed about rush week in this document, other than the absurdity of it.

I'd love to see a documentary on the Divine Nine. I'm not black, but I have absolutely no issue with them limiting their membership. You can't set up a "separate but equal" society for like, a century, and then pretend everything just turned colorblind.

So, so vapid and shallow. I just can’t believe there are young women who voluntarily put themselves through this.

Yes! Shelby was the only confident one, fully prepared for what was going on— and she dropped out of the doc! Definitely not a representative sample of PNMs at an SEC school, and exploitative of the ones she got to participate.

Those two actives she interviewed annoyed me. The way they giggled when they brought up “the machine”



I have no doubt that “The Machine” has deep ties to Democrat local and state political offices


LOL not in Alabama.

What is not mentioned here, which was an ‘aha’ moment for me, was the secret group that controlled everything, from who won titles, to who you vote for outside of college. I remember reading that sororities dropped off bucket after bucket of votes from their houses (many more than those that lived in the house) to ballot harvesters and when people started noticing and asking questions, they were demonized for even asking. The stories were deemed as conspiracy theory, but after seeing the doc, I now think there’s something there. After all, in today’s world, a conspiracy theory simply means “wait six months”. The phrase has been overused and has no meaning anymore

I am halfway through this idiocy right now. Not sure if I can continue.

Seems like there is a market for this sort of thing.
If someone else wants to take a crack at this, maybe they'll do a better job.
There are a ton of former sorority girls spilling tea on social media. No shortage of content. I hope someone else does it.
