It's a documentary
>>215522555I used to think that but now I don't think it will. Poor people can't afford kids, the government will bring in forced terminations otherwise those kids will die of starvation or some other fucked up thing
nah. proposing that intelligence is somehow passed down (as though it's genetic) is a eugenics myth. someone needs to check the screenwriters' bookshelves ('historic curiosity', i'm sure).
>>215522586>Poor people can't afford kidsthat has never stopped people.t. working-class English/Catholic family.
>>215522628Historically it hasn't but it absolutely will in the future. No way a single mother can support 5+ kids on government support
>>215522555Nice trips, and Americans have never been as retarded as they are now, so they might have underestimated the entire concept.
>>215522665true. i know /pol/ is gonna /pol/ about race, but i think it's just human nature (even WITH birth control). maybe religion, but to a lesser extent than previously.i remember my grandparents (both sides) constantly pestering my parents for 'stopping' at two kids in the 90s. but thank fuck they did.
EXTRA BIGASS FRIES
>>215522665mine did
>>215522589>proposing that intelligence is somehow passed down (as though it's genetic) is a eugenics mythproofs ?
>>215522555It's literally a webcam livestream.
>>215522555>idiocracy>president elect is in their prime and very fit>and the next one is elect because he solved problems and is known to be smarter than average>real life>last president elects were either already dementia riddled old farts or near it>get put in place because either party demands it and are elected over media and bickering about which side is le bad
>>215522589>Retards have children because they are retards who dont think too much about it>Retard parents dont give a shit about their children's upbringing because they are too retarded to care>Some women are too retarded to care about their habits when they are pregnant, so the child might not have a proper growth or will receive 2nd hand addictions>As a result, these kids will grow up to be retarded members of society>The outcome will be a slow but steady societal collapseThis is a fact
>>215522885>>Some women are too retarded to care about their habits when they are pregnant, so the child might not have a proper growth or will receive 2nd hand addictionsi'm living this and it sucks so much, bros.i grew up in a family of smokers, which made me avoid it. but what got me was the alcoholism. and my lovely mother has always insisted drinking and smoking during pregnancy was "normal back then" (what, fucking, 1991?)nothing as obvious as FAS, at least not that i've been diagnosed with. but i've picked up the addictions. and just minor things i didn't realize as a child. kid logic, i just assumed everyone else had a "primary" nostril and a "secondary" nostril like being right- or left-handed. the rare occasions i can breathe through both at once, it's bliss.
>>215523106Sucks for you my dude, but its not the end of the world. I used to know a dude from school who received heroin addiction from his mother. He was raised by his father and his mothet was absent, but he still ended up becoming a junkie as well.
>>215522555Ok where can I watch "ow my balls"?
>>215522555It do be like that
>>215523106>i just assumed everyone else had a "primary" nostril and a "secondary" nostril like being right- or left-handed. the rare occasions i can breathe through both at once, it's bliss.it's called nasal cycle or something like that. everyone breaths mostly through one nostril and it changes every few hours or so
>>215522555It's infact eugenic propaganda
stop being racistthere is absolutely no correlation between declining white birth rates and a lower average intelligence
>>215522555it's literally drumpf's america
>>215523490>it's called nasal cycle or something like that. everyone breaths mostly through one nostril and it changes every few hours or soare you sure about that ? Is this the new NPC meme, there's a whole portion of the population that doesn´t know it's not normal to breathe through both nostrils at once ?
>>215523464literally america’s funniest home videos
>>215523490>>215523595I had surgery to bypass the nasal cycle and breathe through both at once. Much better now.
>>215523464It’s playing constantly on mtvIt’s called ridiculousness
americans are so fat and DUMBLOL!
>>215522586>Poor people can't afford kidsOhh my sweet sweet naive little timmy
>>215523383what happened to him, anon? i've tried heroin and it just didn't take. but painkillers/codeine...that one runs in the family too. odd what ends up being your poison, even if you're just predisposed to addiction in general.>>215523490>>215523595i can see it being normal to some extent, and it's not like my left nostril is perma-blocked. i've probably mentioned it to a doctor at some point.but i've also brought it up with friends who can just breathe through both nostrils the majority of the time. they think it just sounds like hell, which it kind of is (even if it's been my whole life).on the other hand i do not have tinnitus. my heart goes out to any tinnitus-anons. would drive me insane.
>>215522586>poor people cant afford kidscope for your loser ass not getting it up
>>215523551
>>215523764>tinnitusThink of it as immediately knowing which threads to avoid. You simply get used to it and only notice it when you think about it
>>215524000it's an interesting one in a mind-over-matter kind of way. humans are just surprisingly capable of adjusting to chronic problems, which is great.but same as chronic pain, it just sounds like a nightmare tbqh. shift your focus and whatever else helps practically, but won't you always remember the before-and-after of it? you'll always have those moments where you return to "this is my life now, forever" ;_;
>>215524263The past is a book. The future is an idea. We live in the present.Before and after only matter if you are using it to solve a problem
>>215523764>what happened to him, anon?I dont know, I lost touch with him after I moved to another city. He wasnt a social media guy either. He only had made a meme fb account only because his girlfriend was nagging about it from what remember, but he almost never bothered to chat with anyone there. Even though he was a bit bipolar, he was a solid lad during the time I used to hang out with him. The only info I had about him, was that his father finally took his ass to rehab like 3 years ago when the covid craze was fading out.
>>215524415nice way of looking at it. i don't think it's wishy-washy nonsense, but i struggle as i get older (and i'm only in my 30s).e.g. i was completely wrong about meditation being some new age nonsense. it's great! but it's the sort of thing that becomes legitimately difficult or outright impossible if, for example, you have a toothache.anyway Idiocracy-is-a-documentary OP #10,000, some people are just stupid and i hope life is fine for them/us. around the time of Idiocracy it was all couch potatoes and reality TV. now it's iPads and quick-hit vidya.
>>215522589You know what 'is' passed down? The environment that stupid people birth their kids inside that made themselves stupid.
>>215523551 Though there is a correlation between birth rate and age expectancy.>>215523926 What's wrong little monkey?
>>215522885>>The outcome will be a slow but steady societal collapseI'm not saying "this is a good thing actually" but this effect limits the degree of systemically induced decline and poisoning.In the real world even super pollution events like Chernobyl get paved over by nature within 25 years.So the moment all the machine failures reach a critical mass to where nothing works anymore, industry grinds to a halt, crops fail fully, mass feminine occurs, you'll actually get a stoppage of the cycle you're describing whereby people are poisoned into stupidity.The show presents everyone as being sort of equally retarded, but that's not how the real world works; there's going to be people who are less retarded, more fit, able to survive the pressures now put on them and they're going to succeed.That's the whole point of the movie (not that I think Judge realized it): Stupid people are more adapt at surviving and thriving in a stupid, machine enriched world. Like the effect is going to be self limiting. Even bad parents that are feeding their kids soda instead of breast milk (see: Appalachian Mountains of PA for a real world right now example) are still giving their kids enough nourishment to survive.Point is, the species wouldn't end; a lot of people would die, a lot of suffering would happen, and maybe the cycle would repeat, but humanity as a whole wouldn't end.
>>215522665How poor do they have to get. Timor Leste has like 8 kids per woman. Poorer than that?
>>215525325>The show presents everyone as being sort of equally retarded, but that's not how the real world worksIts true. Idiocracy is not 100% the future, but its a good sci fi take about the future. Im thinking that actual knowledge will be monopolized by the upper classes. The middle and low class will become increasingly stupid and reliant to tech, they will lose the will to actually try to think for themselves for the most part. Elites know this, and eventually after some time they will restrict access to knowledge and critical thinking, and keep it to themselves. Things seem to head naturally towards there, assuming we dont face some out of the blue crisis of course
>>215524263>but won't you always remember the before-and-after of it? you'll always have those moments where you return to "this is my life now, forever" ;_;There's no escaping the before and after, homes. Time makes miserable fools of us all. People with chronic conditions actually have a leg up in that regard because they're forced to learn how to compartmentalize pain and integrate suffering.
>>215522555the dumb/poor are outfucking the smart/rich
>>215524925I've also had a toothache for years, I just never realized it because it was so gradual that is just became another part of my life. I began looking at my thoughts and deciding which ones to keep and which ones to throw away
>>215522555And yet it wasn't supposed to be.
>>215522555>It's a documentaryTrue, the opening scene is funny as fuck but it hits hard.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP2tUW0HDHA
>>215522589>proposing that intelligence is somehow passed down (as though it's genetic) is a eugenics myth.Evolution doesn't stop at the neck.
Experiencing the strange dysfunction of today I'm inclined to agree. Abdul or whatever his name was took my package to the wrong address again....and other fuckery I cant be bothered to go into.
In idiocracy there is no racism or sexism and homophobia is limited to lazy expressions and not hate. Idiocracy is not a documentary. It’s is a dystopian film that turns more hopeful and utopian every passing year.
>>215527107It was prophetic for a reason
>>215522555i can't remember but does it get mentioned how the rest of the world is doing. Because with merican influence waining like it currently is this really doesn't seem like a possibility
>>215523486It SHO do
>>215522589Intelligence is largely inherited.
>>215522555Basically America if Jan 6th hadn't been stopped.

>>215522555they had to leave out the part where the low-IQs pumping out kids were brown though

>>215522705Oooooooh I am your unborn sibling I never got a sticky ooooooohhh
>>215530274FBI Bailey
>>215522586Poor people are the only ones having kids because they get their food and housing paid for and a comfy neetbux stipend on top of all that. My neighbors next door don't work but live in a house that's exactly the same as mine that I have to wageslave for because they have half a dozen kids. They're all fatasses so they're obviously eating pretty well off the taxpayer dime.
>>215522555No, in the movie they acknowledge when someone smarter is in their presence and listen to him. IRL they would dismiss whatever the smarter person is saying as woke fake news with a bunch of "Trust the experts!" snark
Crazy how this basically describes left wing society. Like the mass majority of Democrat voters are inner city ghetto people that can't read past a 1st grade level and have no discernible skills
>>215522586>Poor people can't afford kidsYou know how I know you're not black OR mexican?Hell, even some mexican who got swiped by ICE has 4 kids, 3 of them have handicaps and grotesque ass cancer
>>215522555These days? Yes, it is.
>>215531084Those people don’t vote. Your average democratic voter is a white who lives in the suburbs or the ghetto.
>>215531996>Those people don’t vote.Ummm actually that's how Biden was elected in 2020. More black people voted for him than Obama in 2008!
>>215522628every sperm is sacred
>>215532378was gonna call bullshit on OP until I saw this retarded muttpost
>>215522589I can tell that both of your parents are retarded>>215522665>No way a single mother can support 5+ kids on government supportYou greatly underestimate the amount of gibs they hand out for people to sit around and queef out kids
>>215522665>$4300 a month just in EBT, the surplus of which can be sold on the black market for cash>plus cash benefit>plus section 8If they couldn't do it they wouldn't have been doing it
>>215531055Too bad they weren't smart enough to listen to CNN, Anthony Fauci, and reddit. It takes a real hero to do that.
>>215522586No, their kids will be in the custody of Carl's Jr
