“Barack & Michelle Obama just produced their first fiction film on Netflix called: ‘Leave The World Behind’ The plot is about a cyberattack that shuts down all the power & cripples the United States. (Predictive programming?) They even managed to sneak in a scene bashing white people.” End Wokeness wrote.

“Netflix film called ‘Leave The World Behind’ produced by the Obamas includes a scene demonizing white people. White people are the only group you’re allowed and celebrated to be racist towards and it will be put into movies by the most influential people,” Chaya Raichik’s Libs of TikTok said.
