The Wessex Scene article by Samuel Gilonis used as a source to describe the movement is insufficient to bear much weight. An article by a student journalist for a UK student paper is a weak primary source for fact and not meriting notice as opinion. Martinlc ( talk) 08:54, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
The Zeitgeist Movement (TZM) is a global social movement founded in 2008 by Peter Joseph that is described as promoting a critical utopian vision to work towards a global consciousness as a part of the larger alter-globalization movement. The movement places an emphasis on the scientific method to rid the world of ideological divisions to "develop a system of human equality, thriving from the cooperation and balance of technology and nature."

This statement is simply wrong:
"The first Zeitgeist documentary which predates the organization Zeitgeist movement, borrowed from the works of Eustace Mullins, Lyndon LaRouche, and radio host Alex Jones. Much of its footage was taken directly from Alex Jones documentaries."
Why does wikipedia take at face value statements like this because a "reporter" says it? Where is the evidence?
Peter Joseph has also refuted this statement. Nothing from the film in ideology came from Mullins or LaRouche and there was a tiny minuscule B-roll clip element related to Alex Jones, whom Peter Joseph hates.
The statement is a classic example of propoganda. Wikipedia editors should be ashamed that they includes such a polarizing statement in what is supposed to be an objective article. 2603:6081:8500:CB77:5B0:E289:41D:7791 ( talk) 01:18, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
