I have seen a few of these with similar story lines and realized we are living it right now. They have the best healthcare, the best food, the best everything and most of us are a few dollars from disaster. That scares some of us to death literally from all the stress it causes.

    Wait, so you mean the absurdist comedy movie made by the guy that made Beavis and Butthead doesn’t go deep into the causes of the issues experienced nor tackles potential solutions?

        I think you have a really good point.

        I’m anti-eugenics, I just want good sex education and free birth control and abortion. Educate people, and empower them with personal agency.

        I think the genetics/natural-selection part of Idiocracy is wrong and in bad taste - ignorance and stupidity are far more correlated to economic insecurity, poverty, food deserts, underfunded schooling. We can and should fix these.

        I suspect most people would ultimately agree with this over eugenics, even if they reference Idiocracy.
