What's the Windows Movie Maker equivalent for Linux? (feddit.org)

Back in my teenage years I remember making music videos to my favorite songs in WMM. It didn't require any previous knowledge about cutting or other video editing tools. It was just simple and intuitive.

Is there an equivalent for Linux that's as easy as intuitive as WMM was? Something I could put in front of someone without previous knowlegde in editing and they could still wrap their heads around in just a few minutes?

(And please don't say Kdenlive. Have you ever tried to add a simple effect like blur to a part of a video? It's super cumbersome.)

Woah you can crop a blur? That's pretty neat

Yep! And you should also try blurring a cropped layer instead of cropping a blurred layer. The former is technically what I had actually done with the two GIFs above. The order in which those two effects are stacked can make a significant difference.
