Idiocracy is slowly becoming a documentary, and I hate it.
The idiots in Idiocracy were aware of their own stupidity, and when they found someone smarter than everyone else, the idiots in power immediately stepped down and put him in charge of solving their most critical problems.
The idiots IRL think they're geniuses, and when the idiots in power find someone smarter than themselves, they run a smear campaign and/or incite violence against that person.
We'd be fucking lucky to get the future depicted by Idiocracy. Where we're headed is much, much darker.
I mean, they did also try to light that guy on fire in a Thunderdome type deal, so give and take.
Idiocracy is a prophetic volume. We're in the great unfolding where it's secrets manifest.
No it isn't. The whole premise of that movie is incorrect. Mike Judge should be ashamed of having played into the fucked up worldview of classism and biological essentialism of your average redditor elitist bigot.
You are not wrong
