Idiocracy. Great movie, it shows the decline of society due to the lack of education and increased birthrates of those who could not care less about anything but corporations. In one scene they go to Costco and the greeter says, “Welcome to Costco, I love you.”
The person who replied to my original post thought the movie promoted eugenics. I guess to a point, but it is more of a warning than a glorification.
The premise that stupidity is inherited from parents is one based on eugenics and false. It’s still a funny movie, but it’s also important to recognize that it is based on a false premise
