In the movie average guy has been transported into society of stupids. But if you’re genius, you see all the idiocies of modern society, all the stupidity of average Joe, and you have no choice but to play the stupid game of life in accordance with dumb laws that this dumb society managed to create

    I’ve been making this argument every single time. What we’re living through right now is a mean idiot in charge of the government with a relatively smart, evil fucker pulling his strings. Not a bunch of morons with a 1st grade reading level who are, at the very least, not doing blatantly evil things. The folks in Idiocracy are indeed idiots, but they’re well-meaning idiots. These folks are just plain malicious assholes doing everything they’ve always wanted to do because they’re just corrupted individuals.

    I’d much rather live as I am (I was the “gifted kid” in school) in Idiocracy than where I do now. Idiocracy was actually merit based. These fuckers are cultish in everything they do.
