When asked what your favorite movie scene is most thinking people choose a moment from a subtle classic like a Stanley Kubrick movie, a timeless great like Casablanca, or a life-changing movie like the Matrix. Being less sophisticated than most, I am compelled to choose a three minute scene from a movie that—superficially, at least—is as stupid as Hollywood gets: the opening sequence of Idiocracy.
This scene shows the parallels, or lack thereof, between two couples at opposite ends of the socioeconomic and IQ spectrum. Two intellectuals keep on postponing having children while they advance in their careers. Meanwhile two low IQ “white trash” types have more and more kids. Even if you’ve seen it, pause here and re-watch the three minutes and then continue reading.
As stupid as this movie seems to be on the surface, these 180 seconds are chock full of wisdom that is worth articulating:
1. IQ matters
Your IQ determines far more about how your life turns out than we’re comfortable admitting, for better or for worse. Smart people, thinking about their goals and ambitions, strategizing and implementing their goals, can plan for a long-term future that, well, idiots won’t be able to do because they just lack the capacity to pass the marshmallow test.
2. …But an IQ that is too high can be a curse
But for all the PhDs and classy lifestyle of the intellectual couple, they overthink rather than act and ultimately descend into misery and early death because their life is barren, barren in the most literal sense of the word (having no kids) as well as in the metaphorical senses as well: empty and devoid of meaning. That’s because…
3. Having children matters more
Without children, not only is your genetic lineage dead but civilization dies. The future belongs to he who shows up—and those without kids are not even showing up. When the idiots are the only ones who show up, they are the ones who then win, by definition.
4. Life’s trade-offs aren’t obvious
The intellectual couple, for all their cumulative IQ points and ability to work hard to focus on the future, just didn’t realize that by postponing having children to earn more money and get more education they were condemning themselves to not have children at all. If life’s long-term trade-offs were obvious, there would be many more deeply moral millionaires.
5. Values matter
How come the high IQ couple didn’t realize the importance of having kids? Because values matter. They had a value system that prioritized education and money over children. Had their value system put children front and center, they wouldn’t have made that trade-off. The intellectual couple admits this directly when the wife says “There’s no way we could have a child now, not with the market the way it is. It just wouldn’t make sense.” They are letting the stock market determine if and when they have kids.
6. You can afford more than you think you can
The intellectual couple thought they couldn’t afford kids when the idiot couple, with substantially less money, not only had the kids, but they’re the ones who have descendants rather than disappearing from history. Think of your great-great-grandparents, who were surely very poor (well, at least 1 of your 16 was), and yet they were able to raise your great-grandparents so you could exist.
7. Don’t postpone what’s important
One of the most timeless messages of all classic traditions and religions is the brevity of life and, as a result, the importance of not putting off what is important to do. You think there’s always another tomorrow, and there always is… until there isn’t.
8. Time passes faster than you think
Another piece of classic wisdom is tempus fugit, “time flies” (although in the original Latin it is “time flees,” a great image: time escaping like she is a bandit). The intellectual couple got old and the man died before they even realized it. They thought they had decades left when they just didn’t.
9. Passive aggressiveness is a losing strategy
The intellectual wife, whose husband dies while masturbating, was consistently passive aggressive with her husband once the going got tough. When she says “Well, we’ve finally decided to have kids, and I’m not pointing fingers, but…” that is the sort of bitchiness that no man wants to put up with. And probably no woman, either. It’s not a coincidence that that woman ends up alone, without even children to comfort her in her final years.
10. Indeed, bitchy women literally kill their husbands
Not only did the intellectual man die before reproducing, but the wife had pressured him to agree to artificial insemination and he died while masturbating for that very purpose. So it was the wife’s pressure that directly lead to his death. As Ecclesiastes, that bottomless fountain of wisdom, pointed out: a bitchy woman is worse than death; in its original words (7:26): “I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets.”
11. Even after failing in every aspect of life, the woman still thinks she’s worthy of a great man
The high IQ woman is unable to realize how profoundly unattractive she is and that she missed the boat. She is cannot admit to herself the reality of her situation. She even says “…just as soon as the right guy comes along.” She’s a 50 year old woman sounding like a teenager, capturing a key truth that no matter how educated they are, women are still that naive, unrealistic little girl inside. Too many women never develop realistic expectations about life or about men.
12. Man is starting to conquer evolution, and this has dire consequences
Survival of the fittest has for all of human history (in fact, pre-human history) slowly weeded out those who would fail at life. But modern technology is quickly putting a halt to this, letting those who would not have been able to survive in an earlier era thrive.
The narrator of this opening scene makes the argument very explicitly: “Natural selection, the process by which the strongest, the smartest, the fastest reproduced in greater number than the rest, a process which had once favored the noblest traits of man, now began to favor different traits.”
13. Modern technologies encourage idiocy
When the low IQ Clevon engages in a moronic activity and almost loses his penis (the doctor says “he impaled his crotch on an iron gate”), a modern medical technique (“recent advances in stem cell research”) lets the surgeons save his “full reproductive function” so he can then have more children. The most advanced medical techniques were used to enable more generations of idiots.
14. The future isn’t going to be all it’s cracked up to be
Venture capitalist Peter Thiel said it best: “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters.” Idiocracy is what the future is more likely to be like than the Jetsons. Be prepared for Gatorade water fountains. At least they have electrolytes!
15. Politics is largely a consequence of demographics
This opening scene is basically arguing that demographics matter so deeply that political situations are a consequence, overwhelmingly, of the demographic situation. Indeed, the entire movie argues that the dystopian, dysgenic future—of which the bulk of the movie is set in is framed—is a consequence of horrendous demographic choices by society for generations and generations.
16. There is one group you’re allowed to mock: poor whites
It is racist to mock blacks. It is anti-semitic to mock (((Jews))). It is sexist to mock women. It is transphobic to mock MTFTM trans people. For every group under the sun, it’s evil to mock them. With one exception: so-called “white trash.” They can be mocked endlessly and cruelly. In defense of this opening scene, the movie mocks the intellectuals even more brutally—although that mockery is less common in the mainstream media, and kudos for Mike Judge for doing so.
Stepping back, there’s a clear pattern to the differences between the high IQ and the low IQ couples here: the later celebrates life and the former is speeding towards death and then actually dies. The idiot celebrates life in moment after moment: Trevor having multiple affairs, his son playing football and screaming that he’s going to fuck all the hot girls (and his father beaming with pride!). They are Living, with a capital “L.” But the high IQ couple, despite their high IQ, can’t produce life, and can’t even enjoy the moment of their brief candle of life flickering.
They say that in medieval Europe the only man who could speak the truth to the king was the court jester. The world hasn’t changed all that much: only a silly, seemingly idiotic movie like Idiocracy can reveal eternal truths, truths that in our day and age you would be burnt at the stake for saying directly.
Much more about conspiracy theories and protecting your privacy.

Absolutely spot on. And so much of this applies every day. Particularly the woman who thinks she deserves a “good man” despite being a massive fuck up. I can relate personally to the issues having a high IQ can possess. Thanks again to ROK for great content and supplying the red pill to the masses.
This is a great article. Certainly among the top 5 I’ve seen in the past month. Return of QUALITY Kings.
First time I ever post, but you spoke the truth man. This article is by far the best I read in months. It gave me a new feeling of living life.
Money is important, but your balls matter more? 😂
My IQ is higher than either in the smart couples pairing.
Married twice, both foreign. No divorce rape. 4 magnificent sons, retired at 56. Current wife is 26 years younger, and bore my 4th son for me when I was 61.
Not every high IQ. Is a money chasing monkey. There is a balance
That is my new goal.
I’m mid 50s
have tween high achiever now.
just broke up with 20 year younger gf.
Looking for younger, better for more kids – and then grandkids.
You realize that by the time your kid- that is, if you had one tomorrow-turns 10 and his mother, 30,you’ll be affected by erectyle disfunction and frequent urination while she’s still ripe and ovulating. Most likely will go get fucked by a hot blooded male under 40 who can still give it to her while you inhale Vicks and massage your articulations. By the time your kid is 20+ years and graduating from college you’ll be 70, most likely with impared hearing and other health problems, living on a retirement fund/pension. Your hot younger wife would have most likely evaporated by then. You won’t live to see your grandkids, that is if you even make it into your 70s. Again, this is assuming you have a kid by tomorrow morning.
I’m all for younger wife and raising a family but let’s keep our feet on the ground.
If you want a good wife there are many ways of getting to truly know someone before putting a ring on it and to also prevent divorce rape in court. However if you guide yourself only after youth and beauty, tits and ass,you’re in for a major disappointment. It takes more than that to raise a stable, functional family.
Teach me.
Idiocracy looks to me more like “You want more Trump’s to get elected? Get busy liberal elites!”.
Vapid people who have an algorithm/reasons/plan for everything, and high IQ enough to make life insufferable but devoid of contact with being an actual human being, much less common sense. Look at women of all stripes, the feminists are repulsive physically and mentally, the high IQ princesses are repulsive in the self entitlement and socially in the attitude and narcissism, the trashy sluts well speak for themselves. The men, stuck on cuck mode and going broke faster because they caved to the system and it being stacked against them, but will not deny their thirst for vagina, so they jump of the stupid cliff and SETTLE for the garbage that is modern women instead of USING their power of CHOICE and SELF RESTRAINT. And still the MGTOWs are vilified for stepping back and out of the mainstream stupidity, pointing their lives towards not being perpetual buffoons and abused herd animals serving the vile vagina hordes in their own terms and stacked societal laws.
Idiocracy was mocking society for what it IS and what it is evolving into. Whoda thunk it that it was a true telling of our trajectory right down to all the gynocentrism effects of humanities suicide….Living Art in action, right down to dismembering babies and individual rights. Sickening really, sickening reality.
Between the 80-90 IQ “white trash” and the 120-140 IQ “(mostly) white liberals” I think this civilization needs a serious reset and no amount of wishful thinking is going to help.
And judging by the amount of sex I am getting I am proly more intelligent than this childless couple 😉 at least they had each other right?
This reminds me of a joke.
An engineer and a mathematician had to solve a problem, the problems was to calculate how long would it take to get up close and personal with a woman if x was the distance and each iteration you could only move closer by x – (x / 2), the mathematician threw up his arms and said “that’s impossible!” I can never reach the woman then stormed away, the engineer replied “that maybe be so, but I still can get close enough for practical purposes in reasonable time”.
Why write it out as x – (x/2) when you can just say x/2?
It’s so pathetic that you guys try to find some deep meaning and red pill truths in movies that are fucking scripted and well-thought out months before shooting.
you are a fucking moron. And books? Written sometimes over years? Yeh, The Laws, Meditations and the BIBLE are all fucking pathetic…
Yeah see, Meditations was written by an emperor and was basically a guide to life he wrote for himself, and Idiocracy is a comedy movie about how stupid the human race gets. To even compare the two is retarded.
My comment was based upon your “fucking scripted and well-thought out” point.
Not “a comedy movie about how stupid the human race gets.”
Your original comment is an attack on finding meaning in things that have potential to teach us something.
Its almost like you didn’t read the article above.
“Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life.” – Marcus Aurelius
Movies are scripted by people with real life experiences. Tho movies can contain lies and propaganda, they can also contain truth. Many of us find truth in the opening that is directly observable in our surroundings. And btw…
“Just some guy” = most likely a girl whose ovaries dried up. The movie opening caused much butthurt.
You basically said, “you guys are pathetic for trying to find deep meaning in something that was well thought out.” Ya lost me chief. Care to clarify?
I feel bad for women with a high IQ. It will be a bit less than impossible for them to find a partner in their IQ range and even if they do, their hypergamy will still make them think “oh, but I deserve better and I can do better”, effectively ruining that woman’s chance at a happy life.
I have only ever met a very intelligent girl (17-year-old Pole, future STEM-student) but I stopped courting her once I realized that I could never be with a girl smarter than me.
Her education and your knowledge of what it means to be a man doesn’t even compare. You can have an intelligent woman. If you believe you deserve one. Just focus on becoming what she deserves and youre all good.
Being with a smart girl is fine, unless that girl repeatedly tells you she is so, and uses that as a way to be superior. Thats not a smart girl, thats a bitch.
I know I can have an intelligent woman. I’ve had relationships with a few, one of them being a Jewess with a certified IQ of 150 at 16 years of age (what can I say, I like teens).
But the relationship at times feels like a power struggle wherein you feel like you are supposed to demonstrate that you’re smarter than her. No thanks, Jeff.
“ I’ve had relationships with a few, one of them being a Jewess with a certified IQ of 150 at 16 years of age (what can I say, I like teens).”
Even for men in the manosphere, that’s fucking disgusting.
Stick with girls that you can legally date.
Don’t be so quick to take offense, Ouiboi. Carlos didn’t say how old HE was at the time.
So True. I know for a fact my wife is more academically intelligent and accomplished than I am. There’s different kinds of intelligence just as there are different kinds of accomplishments. There are most certainly different kinds of needs. I think I’m doing quite well with my 13years, 4 kids, and 5-6 times a week of the best kind of sleep aid on the market.
HA, Sadly men don´t care about her career and titles, I known I 32 years old woman who thinks I will feel excited about her being the boss of some company, I don´t give a shit she was not bangable 10 years ago she is not bangable now. Other lawyer woman was an intellectual, but she only quote and quote many books and shit, like see I read BOOKS!, well she only talks but she does not understand what she was saying. She was unable to create an original thought, Women feels then think. She was also frustrated for me not being surprised for them being “smart”.
Now try to put to work these high IQ women in a team, women tend to want to vote for every single small or big decision like trying to get a consensus of what color of their uniform they will use. They need to ask the input and opinions of everyone in the group and they can waste days of works in shit like that. Practically wasting time, IQ is worthless in them, it is wasted as soon you put other women in the mix, they resort to what they do best, social interaction and social intelligence which have nothing to do with critical thinking and solving problems intelligence.
Yeah. I’m pretty intelligent, valedictorian in high school, though I nosedived in college due to burnout and apathy. I’ve noticed that average women don’t really seem to care when they find this out about me. And many can’t even really tell. Intelligent women find this out about me and many are drawn to it, but it doesn’t replace game in the least. These intelligent women are even harder to get to settle down. They constantly overthink, need both mental and emotional stimulation in incredibly high and paradoxical ways without any reciprocation on their part. It’s a bit sad to see them reject a strong loving successful man over and over because ‘I’m not getting exactly what I need, but I can’t tell you what that is, because I don’t know.’ They’re broken in a way.
STEM is for losers, dunno why this STEM love is perpetuated on the forum. CEOs are chosen from HR and family members. STEM is the bottom of the pile earning low wages when compared to their education investment.
Wisdom beats useless facts 9 times out of 10.
Everyone I’ve known with super super high IQs were super weird and not successful . Without wisdom it’s just another obsession with useless info.
STEM girls are ugly and non-feminine as shit
Agreed.
Then go for asian ones.
They’re at least thin.
I better fuck sexy latinas and sexy Asians instead of shitty career (including STEM) girls
Judge’s supposedly scathing view of the 90’s seems halcyon.
Even Beavis and Butthead seems like Leave it to Beaver. Single mothers had tract houses and jobs. Kids worked at Drive Thrus at 15. The SJW was a hippie washup teacher from the 70’s. Porn was softcore mags stolen by kids instead of internet porn at age 6.
The reality is that rednecks like Clevon are a disappearing breed.
Instead we have the rise of the Trevons and Jamals with their 9 little bastards by 8 different mothers
OTHMER
Even white redneck women stop after 2 kids these days.
Most of these women have two kids young and then go on the pill or just get bitter and frigid.
So you have the children of single mothers grow up a bit hard but not completely feral like blacks in Chicongo.
Also, the film could not anticipate the rise in interracial out-of-wedlock births.
ChiCongo!? Hahaha
Notice the bullshit names. He was spot on about that.
19.
Do I need to post the video link of some welfare vibrant your taxes are subsiding complaining about who’s going to help her feed her kids?
Okay, what’s the difference between rednecks having a brood of bastards and ghetto hoodrats having a brood of bastards? I would think both scenarios are equally bad for society at large.
The difference is in the murder rate and thefts. Feel free to research crime rates by ethnicity.
Rednecks do not have the sheer fertility that Indians and Blacks possibly evolved over thousands of years.
Rednecks might more fertile than WASPS have a more Celtic DNA.
Same with Italians on the East Coast who are more fecund than WASPS.
Generally the redneck female has some semblance of traditional pair-bonding involving broken relationships with 1 or 2 men as oppose to the random fucking.
Most redneck women do not continue to produce out-of-wedlock children. Once, twice but that is all.
To some degree early redneck out-of-wedlock reproduction is environment.
Low IQ males molest little Suzy and she is sort of hyper-sexualized.
Whorish female adults behave in a provocative or slutty manner in front of male children in the trailer or single story house.
However equal factors like the greater difficulty of access to programs deter this.
So in all IDIOCRACY is an exaggeration. Clevon might father children with one or two women or even three but then his wages are so garnished he is a pauper at home with no money to gas up his car and hit the local Rockin Rodeo on Ladies Night.
DAVID
“Murder Rate & Theft”
This has gone down since Opoids replaced Meth as the popular drug.
You had to be in Arizona in the 90’s to see how spastic tweakers really were as they raced through trailer parks with microwaves.
The Oxy just makes them kind of dopey without the energy of the Methhead of yesteryear.
wanna bet?
goto any walmart in the south on a friday. bonus points if it’s the first of the month.
Dude, at least most white trash are still somewhat loyal to their nation…and most of them don’t go around demanding that other people pay for their shit, even if they do take welfare, they will still vote for someone who tells them they shouldn’t get it because it is bad for the nation (whether that is true or not, I am not fully against certain welfare systems). Most white liberals and welfare idiots are middle class white people, feminists, and brainwashed good guys who will end up getting red pill rage one day and end up killing someone. White people are not breeding well these days, not just in quantity, but also in quality. However, colored people are breeding like fucking lunatics compared to white trash. It is almost like colored people (outside of maybe Northeast Asians) are competing with each other to see who can breed the stupidest welfare leeches. Then again, this movie misses one of the biggest reasons why stupid people breed….it is because we gave the stupidest among us (WOMEN) the right to decide how we breed.
Watching this opening scene, I noticed the first adult male after Clevon to popup on the family tree was black. I believe some of the babies were given names typical of blacks. Subtle hints of reality, perhaps.
Great article, and a good film. Judge seems to be one of the few in Hollywood that, while not explicitly conservative, at least understands how the world actually works.
ONE TRUTH
Judge understood the 1990’s and it seems like Leave It Beaver today.
Excellent article. I’ve always thought of “Idiocracy” as being Chaplin-esque in its use of comedy to deliver a serious message.
“Idiocracy” came out in 2006; the rate of decay of society looking back just ~10 years ago is stunning. And not a positive type stunning.
At the current rate things are going, the life portrayed in the movie will look like a tea party compared to what’s really happening.
Mike Judge had his pulse on the 1990’s (I had graduated from high school when Beavis and Butthead aired in 1992).
Let us look back at Beavis and Butthead-
Single mothers had decent jobs and lived in tract houses.
The SJW (And source of derision) was their pothead 30-ish hippie teacher who was portrayed as a Deadhead washup of the 70’s counter-culture. He forces them to read a book on PC (“Men who feel…themselves”)
Beavis and Butthead had jobs in drive-thru at 15. Today Mexican adults work in them.
Mexicans were not omnipresent in Texas where the series was suppose to take place.
Beavis and Butthead were into ACDC and today they would be wiggers who called themselves Crips (Yo Dog What’s Crackin)
Their idol was an older headbanger and not a gangmember.
One odd thing about rednecks is that they have maybe 2 kids out of wedlock and live in poverty.
Blacks somehow can have 5 kids and live better than poor whites.
Yeah, it’s a mystery.
Welfare is directed towards non-whites and women.
Rednecks are white, so don’t get as much.
White redneck promiscuity
A) Someone is always molesting little Suzy like the “Stepfather” (Some guy who lives with Mum for 2 years).
B) Mom and other women act like whores in front of little Clevon so he is sexualized quickly himself.
C) They are just plain stupid about birth control.
Rednecks have 1-2 kids out of wedlock and by then they are 30.
There are not many white welfare queens. Usually they have to get by on poor-paying jobs in addition to some other form of assistance.
My experience is that usually redneck women are stupid in their late teens and become pregnant at 17, 18. Then they move into a relationship with some other guy and have one more child.
After age 25 they have learned how to use the pill.
That scene – everyone I know. Some had kids last egg.
High IQ has great Ikea
Low IQ has great kids – and grand-kids….
My recently philosophy is to knock-up every women I meet – stop ego-debating the possible, most likely negative consequences… divorce-rape/child-support, etc…
that’s short term – long term can be better – much better.
my post from other thread – applies here too:
“I now laugh when I see 40something, aggressive, obnoxious, rude – Strong and Independent Women (SAIW – pronounced SOW) picking up dog shit on the streets of NYC…
they earned it.
all those my body my right abortions.
never a chance for kids – and no grandkids…
cats and dogs till death”
It was a decent movie but Judge Cucked hard on the demographic question, as you alluded to in point #16, which severely damages any credibility in the point it tries to make.
The truth, scientifically speaking, is that a nation full of Whites would be objectively better than a nation of non-Whites, when it comes to average IQ, productivity, efficiency, and human rights. This isn’t even in dispute.
But Judge uses the classic (((Hollywood))) divide and conquer tactic of pitting “Good Whites” against “Bad Whites”.
Due to regression to the mean, all those White children born to the “trashy” parents would still grow up with 100+ IQs and be capable of being honest, hard-working citizens.
But if that group was made up of blacks, even if they were from educated and upscale homes, the result would be a ruined nation of sub-intelligent morons.
This is not my opinion, it’s just what the data shows. But if Mike Judge had tried to be honest about the single most important factor in his little scenario, his kosher moneymen would have never let it go forward.
The lesson here is that it’s a fool’s errand looking for any red-pill wisdom in anything that comes out of Hollywood. Every last bit of it is anti-White and jewed to the gills. If you are still watching movies, you are still a cuck.
JOHN
To be fair Tobe Hooper and Wes Craven were hardcore WASPS and started this with Texas Chainsaw and Hills Have Eyes.
Since the money was Jewish I suspect they simply intentionally gave them characters they despised-hillbillies, rubes, Red Staters.
Jason Voorhees is a Red Stater, when you think about it. He’s a big, strong white guy who wears flannel and lives in the woods.
If regression to the mean existed in regard to heritable traits, there would be no wiener dogs.
Explain wiener dogs. You can’t.
It’s very subtle but look at the extras, most noticably the rehab scene. They’re browner than average. They probably fed (((them))) a bone saying they will hire more hispanics and blacks for movie roles.
Even if blacks score less in IQ tests on average, it doesn’t mean they are morons. And education would help better their prospects in raising smarter children.
Yes, yes it does. They ARE morons. Education does not help, you can’t fix stupid.
Bro, somewhat of what your saying is true, but white people can severely lower their IQ….intelligence is a heritable attribute. If the stupidest whites bred than the average (the mean) IQ of whites would slowly begin to decrease. If black people selectively bred their higher IQ individuals at a higher rate than their lower IQ individuals than they could increase their average IQ over generations. This is how evolution works.
“Porn was softcore mags stolen by kids instead of internet porn at age 6.”
Heh. Making me feel old. When I first started buying porn circa ‘96 or ‘97 the internet was still a novelty to many people and the magazines I bought were indeed soft core. You’d see the P and V, but we were still a couple years off from P going in V in print.
The downside of that was actually for pornographers.
Women who in 96 could merely “model” and make $1000 a scene now have to do Double Anal for $500.
The pay for males in porn dropped as well. Ron Jeremy mentioned that he made $1000 a film in the late 70’s (Enough for him to quit his Special Ed teaching job) and by the 2000’s he made $250 a scene.
I have you beat by a mile. When I first encountered porn it was a Playboy kept under the mattress which showed nothing but air brushed faces, backs, and maybe a little butt cleavage; no nipples, and full frontal was not even a dream.
MIKE Pre-Internet Sleaziness
Remember the days of sex shop booths when you would pay some street hooker to go into a booth that showed “loops” and she would suck you off while you watched. Or sometimes this would be in a movie theater.
25 years ago men that haunted sex stores were perverts and serial killers.
Sadly it isn’t true, but typical liberal racist bs against whites.
No one noticed but if you look at idiocracy closely you will notice the extras are mostly brown or black and certainly darker than the average movie. It is very much the Browning of America where brown people are having multiple kids before they turn 20 while whites and Asians wait until their late 20s or early 30s to have kids. On a year book I could only list a cousin and sister whereas a Mexican friend pointed to all of his siblings and cousins.
However it is not beneficial for most men to immediately settle down and have kids before they turn 25. Not because they’re poorer but because most men, if they aren’t fat drunken pigs, become more attractive as they get older. At 21 the only girls I could attract were overweight and/or bitchy, now at 26 I have my pick of the litter. Also nothing is worse than marrying the wrong woman.
The listless expressions are the dead giveaway that the actors chosen for
portraying the High IQ couple vs the Low IQ couple are actually backwards.
Just gotta say “BEEF SUPREME”!
Excellent article about a movie that started as a comedy, but within a few years became a documentary. I don’t think the liberals who made it had any idea about how accurate an indictment of the future it would turn out to be.
Solution?
Repeal the great society programs
Repeal the Great Society programs
Think Crack drove blacks to crime in the ghetto or meth in the trailer parks in the 90’s? Try taking away their food supply.
In the case of such a widespread famine/cannibalism in city centers the North Koreans or Russia would invade as the US would cease being a Superpower as little elderly Jewish women had their intestines devoured by 250 pound She-boons on the East Coast on the road.
Financial sectors would crash as starving blacks (Stand in front of one at a KFC as I have) at through the assholes of brokers on Wall Street.
This in turn would affect the rural whites who rely on fuel, money, goods consumption.
Sure, they would probably kill the black raiders and scavengers but this would be a full-time guerrilla war.
So the US would cease to be a Superpower.
“But modern technology is quickly putting a halt to this, letting those who would not have been able to survive in an earlier era thrive.”
Modern technology with a HUGE assist from government social programs. Repeal the great society programs and watch how fast we go back to natural selection.
AUTOMATIC
If a 6’4 and 300 pound black confronts you because he wants to eat your flesh (As happens to 100,000 in Africa) whose going to come out on top?
Sure you write great computer code or have a job but the feral blacks are stronger and more vicious (Though not as smart) in one-to-one confrontations.
Hahaha! Good one.
I don’t think it would come to cannibalism.
As the welfare checks stopped coming and projects emptied out, they’d just have to go out and work. Deporting the illegals would open up plenty of jobs.
BTW, 300lbs, huh???
I’d like to think I can outrun a 300 lber, even at my somewhat “advanced” age…
Take care!
I’m 6’5″ and 250.
Send Tyrone over to me, Shlomo.
I’m not Jewish but you make a good point. With no welfare blacks would prey on Jews in the East Coast. Indians. Other Asians. Anybody they could overpower.
This is a good movie and defiantly relevant today. This shows that it is possible to be so smart for your own good that a man can become a genetic dead end while the other extreme, although braking the fear of having kids in bad times (bad economies and such), could possibly blind you from providing a better life for your children. Very Aristotelian it seems.
NOT ONE single point in this article is accurate or true. The American Society is being DISMANTLED and at blinding speed. The entire world is also being “re-structured”. The naive CUCK notion that a white man was better off jerking to Playboy before settling in to slavishly raise sons as fodder for the Vietnam/Afghanistan/Iraq/North Korea “war effort” is complete bullshit.. and the fucking problem. Returning to 1959 brainwash society standards is NOT possible or even remotely a good idea. Your (((Masters))) have expertly painted you into a corner- Protest, complain, or push back and you will have a militarized police state surrounding your house … or let yourself fall into poverty while they laugh at you. It’s your choice… but you still lose.
Stupid people are easier to manipulate, and you are right about one thing, this article does miss one thing…the effect of feminism. Allowing the dumbest and most illogical of us humans to be the selectors of breeding habits was the dumbest thing I could ever imagine.
Money can be created and destroyed.
Nature cannot.
Therefore, nature is god, not money.
I thought I was blocked because I couldn’t post on a couple articles. I got pissed and ranted about it on twitter. I’m glad I’m not blocked.
As for the movie, “Idiocracy.” Well, it becomes more prophetic by the minute. Just look around at people’s actions, style of clothing, manner of speaking, and attitude. They are like bumbling apes pretending to be “human.” Even though the movie was an exaggerated version of how ignorant humanity had become there’s a possibility “we” may get close to that level of stupidity.
I agree with every point the article made, except for one: I’ve met lots of dumb people. They suffer and don’t celebrate life. Many of them feel very lonely, because they lack the empathy and understanding to truly connect with others. They see life exclusively from their own point of view and lack the ability to put themselves into another person’s shoes. Consequently, they fight and fight and fight over small things 24/7, as they lack the ability to prioritize.
In most of those families harmony, peace and love are foreign concepts. Exceptions will probably exist.
If the government gave welfare to those people on condition that they get sterilized, Western countries would be much better off in the future. Especially if those who are (at least to some extent) sane and smart started procreating again.
Are you kidding me, those people you consider dumb are probably smart people who are going into massive depression because they cannot connect with others. Depression, lack of social skills, and lack of “connections” will even affect memory and the ability to perform at a high level. Dumb people are too dumb to even feel depressed…what dumb people do is they just follow trends…if the trend is to play fantasy football, then they all play fantasy football, and if they feel like they are doing what everyone else is doing than they feel accepted and they are typically happy or at least satisfied. Lonely and depressed people are almost always either really smart, ugly as fuck, crippled, or mentally ill.
If all the dumb people I’ve met, had just pretended to be dumb, then they should be nominated for the Academy Award. Those folks were really unable to think, let alone to envisage the long-term outcomes of their decisions. They were like children.
And yes, dumb people still sense that they can’t compete and are at the bottom of the social hierarchy. Of course, that “feeling” of being defeated and helpless can be a trigger of depression. We are power oriented beings, after all.
The trend followers you have mentioned fall into another category of dumb. They are functioning individuals, many of them with jobs (which may be useless) and blue pill behavior. They still have SOME ability to think when it comes to their own little world.
The obsession some have with IQ is as ridiculous as the obsession with test scores.
“Ohhhh,” whines the science worshiper, “America is SO far behind other countries in STEM scores, we must push more STEM on kids.”
Me: “Really? So where is the cure for cancer or diabetes from those places? Where are the clean practical energy alternatives? Where are the inventions to clean up existing pollution, PRACTICAL inventions? Why are cars still burning what Model Ts did? Why are car companies bragging in 2017 about cars with 33 MPG when in 1977 our station wagon, big, was getting 22 MPG?”
Who cares about STEM scores or IQ? What matters are RESULTS, and if obsessing over STEM meant anything we’d all be cancer-free right now.
Having a high IQ means absolutely nothing whatsoever. The creative, daring man who knows how to use what he has is the one who will come up with the next great discovery. Even illiterate low-IQ people with common sense and some self-control can behave in a smart, practical way.
Hi. Thank you for the article.
A very small point, for your personal knowledge: IQ tests, and the underlying intelligence of any tested person are not what the general public believes the tests to be.
The movie you mention is for entertainment purposes, and not part of a science class. In the absence of actual brain damage, “low IQ ” people can breed and have “high IQ” kids for a couple of reasons. The first is that the tests can only measure learned skills. None of which are naturally occurring. The second is that for the last few thousand years, people that we would regard as ignorant and stupid have been the basis for the entire population of the planet.
I don’t in any way mean to find fault with your article. I simply want to give you a bit of the red pill for understanding how intelligence really works, since it appears you were interested enough to write an article on it.
The mainstream blue pill for intelligence groups is :Smart or Stupid. The red pill truth is that genius is made- not born.
Thanks again for your article
Uh, intelligence and an aptitude towards certain behaviors are heritable traits just like height, eye color, hair color, etc. So, I assure you that you are full of shit. “In the absence of actual brain damage, “low IQ ” people can breed and have “high IQ” kids for a couple of reasons.” This is only true to a certain degree, and it in no way disproves evolution. A low IQ couple will always have a higher propensity to bearing low IQ children, and even if their kids manage to be smarter then they are almost guaranteed to not be that much smarter. When it comes to evolution it is all about the larger picture, and it always involves a GROUP as a whole. The average IQ of a group can drop over time if selective breeding promotes it. Intelligence is not just some random thing people get every now and then.
absolutely wrong. you and your 3 fanboys are lefties. go study some evolution theory schoolbooks you bluepill clown. you are one of those youtube atheists LOL go watch some Richard the angry alcoholic Dawkins videos
with schoolbooks i mean indoctrination tools for retards.
@Wolf…uh, I am 100% right…intelligence is a heritable trait that is passed on like many other traits. Now, there is always a little variance in the way genes are passed down and combined, you know, like short people having a kids who ends up being normal height…but intelligence is fundamentally an inheritable trait, and so are many behaviors. This is also why many animal breeds can be breed animals to be more docile and less feral (dogs, cats, foxes..etc etc). Evolution is a fact bro, and no, I am not some crazy YouTube leftist atheist…lol….most of those atheists would actually agree with you because most of them are egalitarians who believe all people are equal. So STFU. Let me guess, you probably believe that the Neanderthal DNA and the DNA from bones of ancient people that prove we have ancestors that were very different from us is all psuedo-science, right? I guess you believe that one day people just popped out of the ground with predisposed intelligence averages by race and for 6,000 years nothing changed whatsoever.
produce children so they can be the future work force (slaves) for the government.
The only reason we will become slaves to the government is because we are low IQ and stupid….we live in a democracy, the government became what we voted it into becoming. Governments will always exist, taxes are a fact of life, either you control your government or it controls you, a rich aristocracy is just as bad for your freedoms as a corrupt government run by idiots, and people who believe in libertarianism (you know, the whole “taxation is theft” thing) are white trash. Your attitude is why we are in our current predicament.
you are a bluepilled fool. you dont live in a democracy you should look up the definition of that word. If voting made a difference, they wouldn’t let us do it.
@wolf…I am a blue pilled fool?…lol…you are a nutcase libertarian moron who doesn’t understand evolution, math, economics, and history apparently. I guess the old saying rings true in regards to people like you…”simple people can only understand simple concepts”. Our constitution was literally created so that the government was more centralized and so that our leaders could tax people to pay debts, build armies, and build infrastructure…George motherfucking Washington even marched 10,000 troops against a bunch of anti-tax morons in the whiskey rebellion. YOU are the one who has no idea what he is talking about, you do not understand reality, and you are probably uneducated white trash.
you are a wannabe intellectual. now go away you mad indoctrinated follower. go study your hoax theories and eugenics LOL
go study their history books you call reality. you must believe everybody who wears a suit. go kiss obamas ass you two believe in the same things. and pluck your eyebrows, for gud PUA-game little beta loudmouth.
LOL, Great comeback wolffy the faggot…zero logic, zero examples, zero facts….just a butt hurt libertarian moron who doesn’t understand life.
If a gf wants to become serious, I make them watch this. It’s a test
17. There seems to be an inverse relationship between IQ and testosterone levels, at least if this clip is to be taken seriously.
Okay I owe everybody an apology for being so obnoxious and prickish.
I’ve had a bad month.
I don’t earn very much and have a lot of bills this month.
Peace everyone.

The dumbest people tend to be the ones who think they have the highest IQs. It’s a mindtrap to make one into a mental slave. Personal value systems and selected influences are infinitely more important than something as trivial as “IQ”. The hell did this metric for measuring even come from really? Let me guess, the person who made it is rich, white, and have a high IQ right? Hilarious!
In short IQ tests were created by a French psychologist to create artificial class structures in schooling that would carry on into the adult lives of unsuspecting schooling.
The Prussian model of school (which the US adopted) divides the youth by grading them (like Beef Grade A, B, C) or de-grading them to psychologically condition the students into become wage slave in industrial society. Anyone ever notice that factory bells and school bells have an identical function? It’s all operant conditioning designed to keep the masses slaves while those who create the system rule behind the scenes. Wake up!
