It makes me really sad to realize Mike Judge was only wrong about one thing in Idiocracy… that it would take 400 years for us to get there…because here we are, not even 20 years later.

    It wasn’t eugenics. It was just that dumb or uneducated people and poorer people have more kids. Those kids are also more likely to be poorly educated and also have more kids, while educated and more intelligent people tend to have fewer children and have children starting at a later point in life.

    There’s no Hitler eugenics here. Poor people live in poor areas with a poorer education system, which leads to more people with low educations.

    Hitler thought Germans were simply better than anyone else at everything.
