Good buddy of mine argued a long time ago that Idiocracy is actually a libertarian utopia. I can’t remember all of the salient points, but despite the stupidity of the populace, it didn’t strike me as being tyrannical.

It was hilarious, that’s what it was.

Wife and I stumbled across it on HBO late one evening and nearly died laughing.

Biden doesn't know what is going on with Ukraine. He doesn't know what's going on with ANYTHING. He's not cognitively capable of leading. He needs to RESIGN before our country suffers anymore.

Biden isn't running things! Whether he draws breath or not has NO bearing on what course this country takes.

I watched that movie because people on FR recommended it. It was terrible.

Oh we watch it at least once a year on DVD. It’s thoroughly entertaining.

I would much rather have President Camacho than what we have now.

Funny that you posted this just now.

A few minutes before you posted this, I posted this comment on a different thread:

________________________

I work with idiots.

I didn’t know they were such idiots until recently.

I wonder if the vaccine has turned them into idiots.

My question to you guys: Have the people where you work turned into idiots in the past year?

For the many of you who are retired: Do your adult children (in the case of those of you who are fortunate to have adult children on the same page of the Notavax issue) report that they have noticed more stupid decisions being made where they work?

“despite the stupidity of the populace, it didn’t strike me as being tyrannical.”

You forget about the part where they were going to murder the smartest man in the world in a public gladiatorial spectacle, as a scapegoat for their problems he had nothing to do with?

But at least they just went straight to it. They didn’t imprison him without trial for over a year.

I just look at how people drive as of late. I’ve almost been run off the road more times in the last 4 months than the previous 40 years.

Someone on another thread posted much the same comment about drivers with a couple minutes of yours.

I had two things happen to me at work the other day.

One lady told me reporters are afraid to tell the truth now after what happened to that one reporter...she couldn’t think of the name. The reporter was fired because he told the truth about George Bush. I quickly realized that she was talking about Dan Rather. To this day she believes Dan Rather told the truth about Bush and Bush pressured people in high places to have him fired wrongfully.

Another coworker, when I mentioned about things being bad with the economy said:

Because of Putin?

So the propaganda does work and the false info is implanted in people’s heads forever.

I don’t think it’s because of the vaccine. It’s decades of demoralization and brainwashing. But like in Idiocracy people are getting less intelligent. Brainwashing, poor diets, a steady steam of crap music and other entertainment in our culture. Foul, primal people being promoted and worshipped like gods. The pitting of groups against one another to make hatred the go to emotion. It’s all to get us to act like animals.
