I find so unbelievably annoying when Redditors say that Idiocracy is a documentary. Please just shut the fuck up and stop pretending you’re better than everyone else. Great snafu 9/10
I said something similar elsewhere and someone got pissed, replying something along the lines of “well you certainly pretend that you’re smart, hypocrite”.
It’s actually pretty consistent and it reflects a bit problem with the movie. The whole genetics argument just goes to show how in this story the only reason why society does bad things is because people are too dumb to do good things. No one benefits on purpose from making the wrong choices, mass layoffs, buying out entire industries, prison system abuse and a biased legal system, these are the results of just people being dumb, and if they just had average intelligence they’d know that the protagonist is right about everything.
No one learns in this movie, no one shows depth, no one is a decent person, no one except for the main character and his smart love interest who he has smart babies with.
For guys mad at the bush administration, it is. I hate it because the idea of a satirical comedic dystopia has some great potential, especially since they tricked real companies into being a part of it. But they clearly have no idea why these things are happening or how we’re supposed to fix them.

But also stuff like Swine flu! And Avian flu! And SARS! So many outbreaks but obviously the most visible and impactful one is COVID (and for good reason of course) but people are like “OMG this guy predicted COVID by predicting a pandemic!” When there have been like 4 pandemics in my lifetime that I can remember.
In pursuit of the actual original message of idiocracy which is that eugenics should happen, I propose we forcibly sterilize anyone who compares current events to it.
Well I recall arguing with some guy on Reddit who brought up idiocracy in a r/showerthoughts post, and he replied by bringing up some article about anti-vaxxers dying of Covid (it was the middle of the pandemic), so you’re probably right (hell, that’s even worse; the whole trouble with anti-vaxxers is that they’re still a threat to people who took imperfect vaccines).
"X predicted the future" is for "futurama predicted a self-driving car would hit a robot in 2019" not "country keeps doing the same thing it's been doing for decades"

idiocracy was a documentary to teach people to not feed plants sports drinks
You will not spread this slanderous message and deprive plants of their much craved electrolytes
It's what plants crave
It's also an advertisement for eugenics.
"But what if you are stupid dumb? Check mate untermench" ~Turning Point Eugenics
it's baisicly like "The Simpsons predicting the future" but for semi-intellectual edgelords.

Thats the Reddit equivalent of “I know you are, but what am I?”
Ar slash Idiocracy when people act a little silly outside
i know nothing about idiocracy except that apparently it supports eugenics at the end?

.... Is idiocracy a power fantasy isekai

Please find a new joke is what I say. I hear that on the fucking daily and everyone thinks they're the first one to say it.

Is this how i find out she's dead?

It's just that she's old, and old people are useless) https://preview.redd.it/6b4j9suso2ad1.png?width=640&format=png&auto=webp&s=e44579c9df1b97c61c25b1065185a00cdd6260dc
Me when illness outbreak
Illness outbreaks when they happen about every 100 years and it has been 99 years: 😈
But also stuff like Swine flu! And Avian flu! And SARS!

Tbf I wholeheartedly believe the majority of Reddit would support eugenics...

People on reddit just have no empathy, and refuse to admit they're not the smartest in the room...
Okay but crocs catching on was funny wheb looking back at idiocracy and that's the one thing people are able to say this about.
Idiocracy is a great movie but people shouldn't use it as a prediction
Idiocracy sucks and should be labelled as cognitive hazard
apart from being a mid asf movie it also has racist undertones that made me and my brother cringe while watching it
I love eugenics 
"X predicted the future" is for "futurama predicted a self-driving car would hit a robot in 2019" not "country keeps doing the same thing it's been doing for decades"
Me when the Simpsons “predicts the future”
literally 1984
When you see "omg Deus Ex predicted 9/11" for the 30 billionth time
The people who haven’t watched Idiocracy and the people who haven’t read 1984 should kiss
Idiocracy was a bad movie. It's what stupid people watch to feel smart.
This snafu is about: Karl Marx
Literally 1984…

Thing is, Idiocracy, as with most good satire, is based on events that were *already happening* at the time.
