I disagree.
Because BFC made us "bleeding heart liberal Europeans" realise that there are some "bleeding heart liberal" Americans" too, which greatly improved the opinion Europeans (especially intellectuals) had of the US.
Believe it or not, BFC was the base of a major opinion change in Europe. Many people now don't think badly about the US but only about the US government, which can be shrugged off easily in the near future when the government changes (be Bush reelected or not, it's only a matter of time). A lot of bad prejudice against the American people is gone and that's thanks to Mr. Moore and his movies.
