Sad. [YouTube] IDIOCRACY Opening Scene (starting at second 61)

*Walks to the attic and opens window*
*Takes a deep breath and looks outside*

I can see her. She looks just like the actress… and has plenty of kids.
This formally absurd movie has turned into a f…ing documentation.

Idiocracy is a modern classic.

No. It is a piece of satire that has unfortunately become a talking point by eugenicists and libertarians and edgelords (but I repeat myself), but it's simply not true. The opening joke is just that, a joke.

I disagree on this.
The opening "joke" is just not a joke (anymore). It is a precise presentation of what I can see around me. Where is the joke? I literally see it by just opening the window on the attic and looking out. Leaving the house and walking down the streets I can find many(!) more instances in the near(!) neighborhood.
Not sure what the word edgelord is supposed to mean, but I guess it is some kind of generalizing, categorizing and negative attribute that can be stamped on a person (Maybe to disregard their statements across the board without actually invalidate anything in particular? I really don't know and I do not want to research this right now.)

Bringing in eugenicists as a killer argument against this movie is trite and lame. *Yawn*

Please take in account that the world is not the same everywhere. Maybe you have a better environment of people around you. If so: That's awesome (nor sarcasm!) I can only speak for my area. I have experienced scenes from that movie. Literally witnessed parts of that movie in reality.

Satirists generally have a hard time nowadays. What has formally been absurd exaggeration gets lapped by reality.

I disagree on this.

Feel free to do so.

I wasn't dismissing the entire movie - there are some things that it does right, and a fair few of the jokes are doing what they're supposed to, holding a large funhouse mirror to reality - I am criticizing the opening scene, the one you posted.

It plays on the idea that intelligence is 100% genetics and not largely impacted by external factors - a very common argument in eugenics.
It plays on the idea that the level of education is 100% related to intelligence and not availability/accessibility of education and other factors - a very common libertarian argument.
It plays on the idea that the family size / number of offspring is dictated by intelligence and education and not by existential stability.
It flat out ignores the hundreds of thousands of years of humanity multiplying like rabbits in a time the only selection for cognitive skills was to be able to recognize the edible part of a tree, that didn't result in the entire humanity regressing to monkeys.

Human intelligence does not work that way.

The opening scene is a joke. It is not fact. It is just that, a funny setup to a funny movie.

Feel free to disagree.

You should've left behind a sandwich or something, but stuffed with hot sauce.
Whoever starts coughing like crazy is the one who's been/was stealing your food.

We would normally suggest laxatives (assuming you don't own the business) or something more fun but also obvious (and also not likely to get poison control/the national police called in... ask me how I know).

The only way chilli sauce is going to get me and most of my friends is if it is that good that it is one of the "damn the consequences I have to know so I can get some more of my own" scenarios.
