How is this not the Idiocracy timeline? I'd anything it feels like the pace of the "dumbing down" is too fast.
The president in Idiocracy sought the help of someone smart.
Y’all need to remember that and realize we are way past this movie.
and it was the AI assigning jobs to people too.
Idiocracy would be a vast improvement over our current predicament, no joke.
Yeah, there weren't leagues of malevolent rich assholes seeking to make the world worse for their own profits. Just a bunch of idiots who apparently forgot how to think.
Ignorant but willing to learn. And laugh about farts, not violence.
IIRC. Maybe I should re-watch it.
Absolutely, idiocracy was too optimistic. In their version, it took 500 years to get there.
We'll be there in a generation, maybe 2. (If we have that many generations.)
I literally saw a comment about a month ago on Lemmy saying "what's next, wrestling matches in the white house?" Or something like that.
Whoever you were, you fucking called it
Probably just a coincidence that Paramount is purchasing UFC exclusive steaming rights in a seven year deal.
skydance a trumper, trying to save the dying stream industry, trying to get the conservative audience on board.
without TREK, and south park, Theres no reason to even have paramount.
Camacho would be such an improvement on reality nowadays...
Ya, at least he recognized there was someone out there smarter than him and brought him in as an advisor.
I hate how increasingly accurate this movie has become.
As is usually pointed out, the similarities are not strong.
President Camacho actually wanted to help his people, hired the smartest person he could find, and listened to his advice.
And stepped down as President in the end to let someone else lead. For a better comparison of leadership now, look at Don't Look Up. Far more realistic in so many ways.
I'll also throw in Iron Sky.
The problem with that is the world has to get bad enough for President Camacho to help the world. We're in the Pre-Camacho era
When are these “Alpha Males” going to turn on the pedo in chief because they certainly look like a bunch of beta cucks right now
We live in a joke of a country
UFC started to become fascist, absolutely ruinimg the sport. UFC In the facist house
its basically glorified bumfights, allegedly he doesnt pay most of his fighters well, unless they are the face of the company.
Dana White at the inauguration was such a fever dream experience.
How male and masculine.
Trump must really have a huge penis eh?! What a big boy.
Yeah, watching two ripped tattooed dudes wrestle in their underwear while inside a literal cage. Macho af
My favorite thing is taking pictures of them grappling, then putting a black censor bar over the trunks so it looks like they're having sex. Turns out it's really really easy to make it look gay(er).
even without it, it still looks like they are going hardcore.
How tacky.
Truly Dystopian
Ackshuly, isn't dystopia in the future? So, what is this then? Oh yeah, fascism.
UFC to host first-ever fight event at the White(trash) House
Was the WWF (or whatever the criminal wrestling organization goes by these days) booked?
This is the best thing Trump has done this term
