Idiocracy was a movie released in 2006. It was supposed to be a comedy but morphed into a sad documentary which envisioned "a disturbing prophetic look at the future of America-and-our era of stupidity."
The movie documents an Army experiment in suspended animation. Two subjects are preserved cryogenically and frozen in a time capsule. The Army forgot about the experiment and the time capsule was lost in the dust of time. Both subjects wake up in the year 2505 and discover that America is completely filled with dumb people. Apparently intelligent people stopped having children and stupid people procreated like rabbits. "Future" America is run entirely by idiots who are perpetually stuck on stupid.
The leader of "future" America is President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. President Camacho dictates that all crops must be watered with an energy sport drink called Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator. Brawndo is full of electrolytes and five kinds of sugar so it must be good for growing things!
Why wait for 2505? Idiocracy accurately describes the goofy decisions of cognitively impaired Joe Biden in 2022. Our feckless leader, "Mountain Dew" Biden could be Camacho's great-grandfather. No one would be surprised if Joe signed an Executive Order demanding that all crops be watered with Brawndo because it has "electrolytes, you dumb, dog, pony soldiers." Dr. Fauci would hype electrolytes, whatever they are, and demand that everyone on the planet drink 4 cans of Brawndo a day.
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.That's the dude in charge of our nuclear codes. God help us. Biden's cognitive ability maybe impaired but at least the country is safe from Trump's snarky tweets. Everyday I receive multiple e-mails from Don's campaign staff asking for my opinions and $$$. I don't have $ but I do have plenty of opinions. Not really sure but Trump may have invited me to Mar-a-Lago for lunch.
Lets go to the gag reel and review Biden's bloopers since his inauguration:
1. Abandoned Afghanistan. Joe pulled all of our troops out of Afghanistan in the middle of the night and forgot to tell anyone. Joe also forgot to take 84 billion dollars of our sensitive military equipment and left desperate, stranded Americans to fend for themselves. The optics of Americans begging for help looked really bad so Joe sent 1,000 troops back into harms way. 13 of those brave service members returned to the USA in body bags.
2. Closed the Keystone XL Pipeline. Why tap vast American oil resources when you can use taxpayer money to import oil from Russia, Venezuela, Iran, and Mars?
3. Biden "triple dog dared" Putin to invade Ukraine. Challenge accepted and Putin's tanks roll into Ukraine searching for some maternity wards to destroy. Under pressure by Peppermint Patty to do something presidential, Biden banned Russian oil imports. Biden forgot that we need Russian oil and then remembered that he moronically crippled his own energy industry. America was in crisis mode and Biden begged our BFFs, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela and Mars to pretty please pump more oil. They took a hard pass and collectively told Joe, "Sucks to be you "Mountain Dew." Biden is still waiting to hear from the Martians.
4. Gasoline at the pumps hit $6.00 a gallon. "Mountain Dew" Biden and Peppermint Patty blame, Russia, Trump, Witchcraft, Tic Tok dog videos and Leatherface who recently returned to terrorize Millennials. Idiocracy.
5. Inflation spikes. "Mountain Dew" Biden blames Trump, Corn Pop, Jussie Smollett and Scrooge McDuck. Idiocracy.

I concur that in the last couple of years that driving has become way less patient and very aggressive. For a few reasons I hate driving now, but that is one of them.
He came up with a plan to save the US (albeit simple), and it worked!
“Ouch, My Balls!”

Today’s Media.
I watched that movie because people on FR recommended it. It was terrible.

You have to understand Mike Judge’s method for social satire.
Office Space is a great satire on the waste and malaise that occurs in larger corporations, among satirizing other things peculiar to the corporate world, like everything from paper jams all the way to self-serving organizational analysts.
I grant you that Office Space gets more than a little crass, repeatedly. The part that’s hard to pick up is that it is that crassness and lack of civil social etiquette that is the center of the dystopian commentary, along with the obvious drop in IQs.
Some people will say I’m stretching it, but Beavis and Butthead was a commentary on the lack of social structure and the degradation of the family in generation X. Without the depravity, the point would be lost
Agreed - it had a lot more potential, but someone decided not to put much money into a decent script.
It is supposed to be a comedy, but is actually prophecy.
Correction, “I grant you that IDIOCRACY is more than a little crass,...”
Use water, like from the toilet?...
“Can We Go
‘FAMILY STYLE’ On Her?”
No, let’s hold off guys...
LOL! “Monday Night Rehabilitation”! He just wanted to get his pardon.
I watched Idiocracy again a few months again and it’s not as funny now that the USA devolving quickly into the world depicted in the movie.
At least in the movie it took a few thousand years for society to crumble. We’re less than a generation away now from the USA completely breaking down if nothing is done to reverse course.
Trump getting elected was good, but it might only end up being a temporary pause from our societal rot.
...but despite the stupidity of the populace, it didn’t strike me as being tyrannical.

It’s definitely not tyrannical. just inept.
Actually, I’d far prefer a President Camacho to Brandon. At least Camacho loved the U.S.
The only mistake in Idiocracy is the date. There’s no way it’ll take another 400 years for us to be using Gatorade as fertilizer. And the big box stores are pretty much already there.
its all planned...all of it...the so called virus, the remdesivir, the banning of products that actually work, the demanding of masks and vaxxes and testing and now this "war" in Ukraine, the food inflation and shortages, the FUEL inflation.....
this is ALL planned.
And get to the time musheen.
I first saw it when I walked in on my son who was about half-way into the movie. It looked sort of fun, so I had him fill me in on the premise. My first thought was, this is not a comedy, it’s a documentary of the future.
Pfizer is Brandon.
Prove me wrong.
Sorry. BRAWNDO
LMAO! Perfect!
