39. Idiocracy

Fri May 27, 2022, 10:31 AM

May 2022

If you haven’t seen it you need to watch it. Idiocracy was supposed to be a really far-fetched satire. It was not supposed to be a depiction of reality. But, sadly, we are living through it in real life.

The movie was wryly funny.

The reality is not very funny at all. All of the stupid ideas and the stupid stupid people behind them that we used to make sure stayed in the fringes have now become mainstream. The idiots have now decided that they are smarter than all of the smart people out there. They are really the smart people and all those scientists and doctors and people with degrees and shit….well, they’re a bunch of idiots.

Herschel Walker is a pure distillation of a idiocracy.
