idiocracy
I do know about its existence, but the description doesn't sound like I'd like it. In the queue, lemme try.
It's good, but hits a little close to home these days.
I watched idiocracy at home a year or 2 after it came out, and I hated it because i felt like it beat you over the head with the message, like yeah I get it, I don't need to watch an hour more of this!
..then I rewatched it after our handling of covid and January 6 insurrection.. Thought to myself "yep... Thats how the future plays out.."
If you watched it now for the first time? In 2025? Fucking hell. I hate this timeline.
One can only hope we end up with a president like Camacho. Dudes an idiot, but at least he put in the effort to help his constituents by finding the smartest dude he could and have him solve their problems.
Sounds like it aged like wine.
It came out when I was busy getting started in life after school. So a lot of what came out in that period didn't feel "genuine" at the time.
It's stoner comedy and political analysys
