Trivia
During the Norway segment, it is stated that mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, who was responsible for several terrorist attacks in 2011 that killed 77 Norwegians, was sentenced to a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 21 years in prison. It is also mentioned that 21 years imprisonment is the maximum penalty in Norway, regardless of how many casualties there were. Although this is true, it should be added that Breivik was specifically sentenced to containment. Containment or preventive detention means that although the initial sentence is 21 years, the imprisonment can be extended indefinitely, as long as the convict is considered a danger to society, so in practice this probably means life imprisonment.

Goofs
When listing what the French get extra for their tax money besides basic services, on screen text states 4 weeks paid vacation. The French have a minimum of 5 weeks paid vacation and 11 legal holidays a year.

Quotes
Michael Moore: I am an American. I live in a great country, that was born in genocide and built on the backs of slaves.

Crazy credits
At the end of the credits, we see a woman scaling a flagpole and cutting down a Confederate Battle Flag, while we hear a pair of men (presumably some sort of law-enforcement officers) requesting that she stop. Accompanying that scene are the words of Moore's battle cry: "Hammer. Chisel. Down."

I'm A Grown Man And I Literally Cried!

We Americans have a lot to learn from other cultures. Most Americans think they are "the best" in the world - IN EVERYTHING - AND THAT'S UTTER NONSENSE! It's a form of social control used by various elites to keep the average American from knowing what is possible with the great wealth and power our country has accumulated. We have been brainwashed into taking crumbs and believing that's all we deserve from our society.

We are also deliberately kept ignorant about the rest of the world and how much better many countries treat their citizens - since our school systems pretend that most of the world outside of Mexico, Canada and a few large countries in Europe and Asia - simply doesn't exist. It outrageous. We are such fools!

I'm an extremely well-informed person and I didn't even know about half of what Michael Moore mentioned in his film! I can only imagine all the dunderheads out there who have never even heard the names of some of the countries mentioned in Where To Invade Next! Be curious about the rest of the world. It has a lot to teach us!
