  • I mean, I’m not saying things can’t get better… but they’ll never be like Idiocracy. The reason people seem to be getting stupider isn’t because of eugenics, it’s because of the concerted efforts of those in power to stigmatize intelligence. They’re not just going to up and disappear… they’re going to exploit the under-educated.

    It doesn’t help that often they have little to no support structure because most people assume they’re corrupt by default.
