      Wow, I wasn’t even paying attention to her. Looks like she and Lauren Bobblehead both kept their seats. I really think this election confirms that we’re in a simulation, and a drunk grad student just fucked with it.

    I know shit’s bad right now with all that starvin’ bullshit. And the dust storms. And we runnin’ out of French Fries and burrito coverings. But I got a solution.

    Am I the only one who found a message of “hope” in Idiocracy? We start at a future dystopia approaching human extinction caused by following some of the worst trends in current society. Then a savior appears, and they’re smart enough to actually follow him? They’re able to overcome some of their worst natures and start on the road to recovery.

      Yeah stupid people wishing they had real solutions is a way better outcome than stupid people cheering for the worst outcomes thinking they are solutions

        Indeed, Idiocracy shows an automated sex positive future where everyone does what they want because they don’t have anything to be afraid of anymore… One where problems exist sure, but we all acknowledge them and agree the smartest people should be fixing them.

        We have… a fire burning the world down, but it’s a slow burning overly painful flame that isn’t even pretty to look at, and you’re considered impolite for bringing it up and “playing politics” if you wanna try putting it out.
