Yes! People keep on thinking that they’re so smart by saying “see, idiocracy was riiiight” when the movie basically tries to say that stupidity is hereditary, and that dumb people (understand: the sub-race) need to be eradicated through eugenics.
That is such a nazi stance, and there’s a gigantic amount of morons that don’t see it and keep on screaming “idiocracyyyyy” anytime they can.
mike judge hasn’t really expressed those opinions in his other works so i don’t think the movie tries to express that. it just does, perhaps unintentionally. you can equally make the case that it’s a great replacement allegory, or a meritocratic argument, or criticism of institutions that neglect the lower classes.
point being, i’d like to know what the writers room tried to actually make it express.
Terrible opinion but people are ignoring that this is what the movie says. The movie sucks because of this.
