Quick correction: we say the Flynn Effect shows IQ increasing 3 points every year, but it's 3 points every DECADE. Apologies for the dumb typo!
Oh shit, that makes a huge difference
In that case I want to hire you to work for me for $10/hour. I'll pay you $8 at the end of each 8-hour shift, minus taxes of course.
So... we have verbal typos now?
Idiocracy confirmed
I.....dunno man, you kinda contradict your whole disagreement by the explanation if I understood what your saying correctly. Besides people are probably all going to become weak and paranoid before they become completely desensitized to ignorance I think.
Actually President Camacho is very smart in one fundamental way: he knows there are smarter people than he is and is willing to listen to their advice even when he does not comprehend the idea behind them.
and thats why he was president
Thats not necessarily being smart, thats called letting your ego down temporarily. Any one of any intelligence can do that
@@johnnathan5894 Wrong.
Veli Karppinen really? Looks like someone doesnt know how to let there ego down to learn. I think the issue here is the word you used. i think the word you shouldve used is “wise”:the president is wise to listen to someone smarter. And suprisingly there is little correlation between intelligence and wisdom. Willingly being able to listen to someone smarter than you is a life lesson that anyone can learn. afterall kids do it in school all of the time, well thats until they become teens and there ego takes full control....
@@johnnathan5894I think enough smarts gives you opportunity to become wise. Presidentin Camacho has enough smarts to be wise. Wisdom and intelligence are related. Things become very difficult if you are smartest, but not wisest guy around.

You get it.
Deeply dumb
Imagine putting in all this work in 2019 to make a good well thought out case against this movie coming true only to have the powers that be respond with 2020.
2020 in general, what the hell? I still can’t believe we didn’t somehow jump timelines; we certainly jumped the shark.

Idiocracy is a horror documentary now!
The most unrealistic part of Idiocracy was that it's 500 years in the future
why
@@eleonarcrimson858 because it's happening now
It has already begun!
The writer said he got the prediction right but was only off by 490 years.
It's suppose to be. Te Time Machine movie was many thousands of years into the future, an the people were just as dumb.
"Is it deep or dumb?"
"Yes."
"So, you're saying me there's no yes or no answer, u sure people will get it or are they gonna want a simpler answer?"
"Yes"
"Is it deep or is it dumb? - I Love You."
Question: Is it true that when you say "No" you really mean "Yes"?
Answer: "No"
:-)
And you know. For us to even have to ask that question about a film shows how special it actually is.

“Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.” - George Carlin
The song wet ass pussy was very popular
@ I heart lofi
George Carlin was actually against vaccines because he said that the virus would make a new strain whenever a vaccine was created. He also never feared germs and he believed that we were doing everything possible to avoid contact with germs. He also never believed a word that the government told him which is contrary to what we’re being told now.

2020: It's scary how often I see people like this.
2030: Boring. I go to Starbucks and get a hand job.

Dude literally Starbucks is a handjob people pull up just to chat it up and feel validated through their baristas lol essentially an ego boost like a handie
The larger criticisms were already true when it came out. That's the point of the movie, to exaggerate real problems to make them obvious and also to be funny. That's what we call satire.
Idiocracy is now a horror documentary!
One thing they got wrong was Costco. It should be Amazon instead.
Sometimes hindsight isn't quite 20/20. In the movie Frequency, guy talks to his childhood friend 30 years in the past and tells him to remember the word "Yahoo". End of the movie, he's rich. Yahoo, not Google. Mhm.
@@Recon777x
Don't worry... Googles crash is coming. (the signs are already appearing) History might see others, like Yahoo, more favorably than Google. AOL was popular for a long time (monopoly?) but is almost unknown now. I bet a LOT of people got rich off of it.
@Saiko I can honestly say that while comment sections of Yahoo are still in the "leaves much to be desired" zone, they've actually come a ways...though having been bought out by some media company that also owns huffpo I'm wondering if it will slide backwards again.
I remember when Y! article comment sections were downright attrocious, like reddit and facebook, the "chan" boards, and even like here in YT. Now at least ppl who post articles either try to be as objective as possible, try to balance each other out, or at the very least don't try to masquerade their bias as unassailable truth.
I remember AOL days, or where even a 56K dial up was a relative luxury. NetZero anyone?
Google iirc is merely the front company for government experiments with DARPA. However their two faced hubristic attitude is catching up to them fast.

Tom Green...
@COD GOD Jackass is what I was thinking too, it existed when this movie came out, and there are quite a few "Ow! My Balls!" scenes in Jackass.
Ridiculousness just ripped off America's Funniest Home Videos basically
So basically, people aren’t necessarily getting dumber or stupider, just the people who our society considers dumb and stupid get more attention than smart people
No, stupid people do have more kids than smart people. Poor people have more kids than rich people.
and maybe america is turning into a third world country
Yea. Because climate change science is boring. But infinitely more important to our future than social media, which fuels drama, which most people find more interesting. People always found science more boring than interpersonal and celebrity drama, but social media made it so we have instant access to endless useless information, so now almost no one can muster the energy to care about stuff that matters for more than a few weeks

The movie by the end would be called a normul tale
One of the big themes in Idiocracy that gets overlooked is that the people have stumbled into, and become reliant upon, an authoritarian dystopia. There are many references in the first half of the movie to ID tattoos, being an "unscannable" individual, automated payments linked to ID and most importantly, a brutally violent police force. Machines track their every move - "A coke vending machine alerted us to his presence nearby". The point being that this dystopia clearly has had little to no impact upon people's individual and collective behaviour beyond freaking out if somebody doesn't have their "tattoo".
czcams.com/video/UOxAEhkZBTU/video.html
I would probably be more amenable to this movie had the cause of society's stupidity being the greater amount of propaganda and celebration of willful ignorance than eugenics and classism
Why cum you don't got a tattoo?
kinda makes you think of a certain passport that was being pushed....the UNSCANNABLES
"automated payments linked to ID and most importantly, a brutally violent police force. Machines track their every move" - I got bad new news for you..
4 years later, it's self-evident, this film was prophetic.
This guy is quite wrong. Not fully but he is. COVID have proved me how much dumb people really are.
So you believe that eugenics is real science?
@@XJapanGonnaGiveItToYa-cd4xj Eugenics and all words associated with it have become the "electrolytes" of our reality. Ubiquitous, bandied about cavalierly, yet no one uttering or scribing these words knows what it is they're saying.
@@XJapanGonnaGiveItToYa-cd4xj You spelled electrolytes wrong.
Putting Raid ad to this video is the best irony I’ve ever seen
Thanks to this movie, I can't see the word "electrolytes" without thinking "It's got what plants crave!" It's got ELECTROLYTES!
I imagine the lovely AG Sara Rue doing that thing with her hands every time I see that word, along with hearing that catchphrase. It's not just you :)
Oh God every time I see it i have to yell "dude its got what plants crave"
I have a friend from the midwest who had no idea Carl's Jr. was a real franchise. He thought it was made-up for the film (which we both LOVE). When we took a road trip out to visit my mother in California, I took him to one and he was blown away. He posed for pictures at the lighted entry sign and he even asked for "extra big-ass fries" in his order. The clerk, sadly, didn't understand the reference.
This movie influenced me to drink more water.

@@reverendaero Literally the first thing I did as it came up
@@gorchakovvs7750 good man
Every time I watch this movie, I notice another detail that has turned out to have come true.
Last time, I noticed how Rita was just charging that one guy money for very minimal interaction, and I realized that that's essentially what sex work is now. I've never been on only fans, but I've definitely heard stories of women charging dudes more than their rent to see pg13 rated pictures and get a message with a few emojis once in a while. Then there's something like the grant Amato case where he literally paid some model's mortgage off to chat with her for a few hours a day.
I think the quote from the movie was "the world's oldest profession is a lot easier when the world is populated by morons." Its just like, yeah. At this point, you're the idiot if you actually do anything sexual for money. Belle delphine became a very famous multi millionaire, and actually getting naked ruined her career, as far as I can tell.
It's bullshit cuz those morons drove up hooker costs through the roof. Shouldve bought hooker futures ten years ago
Mike Judge is a genius...this may not be the greatest movie ever made but it's definitely holding up well today. Aged like fine wine. Only thing he got wrong was everyone not being on their smartphones.
Camacho listened to people that are smarter than him, though. And there is one thing that bugs me every time I see it: Everything is dysfunctional to the point that skyscrapers collapse out of neglect and everything is dumbed down so much that it is very questionable they could last that long. A food crisis would have happened hundreds of years earlier, all the automatted processes would have stopped a long time ago because nobody can repair or maintain those (just think McDonalds ice cream machines on a grand scale). "Ow my balls" may have the dumbest content but apparenty they can still do TV shows with all the necessary planning, operating cameras and coordination etc. Or look how clean and tidy the white house is.
@@Puschit1 maybe just the smarter people separate themselves
geniuses don't form an entire movie around "eugenics might be right"
Amount of Education is not necessarily the same thing as Quality of Education

We are living this movie now.
This was made in 2019, BEFORE the discovery of COVID-19. The pseudo-intellectualism regarding our health, since that time, is truly unparalleled.
and today we see headlines that say "the vaccines might have been bit rushed out, just tiny bit" and "we didn't force anyone to take them".
i never had anything against vaccines but i understood the complains about the covid one.
Those ‘headlines’ come from the Fox News writers room. That network functions at the same level of intellect now. as portrayed in this film.

@@King_Nex Why would it be bad? He did it on the video " how to beat the system and lose"
One thing you didn't mention about IQ tests is that the scoring system is always adjusted so that 100 remains the average, no matter what. So even if everyone's IQ increased or decreased by ten points, the scale would be adjusted to keep 100 at the middle of the bell curve. So you can't really use it as proof that one generation is smarter than another, only that one specific individual is either above or below the current average, whatever that may actually be.
Ha, NNNEEERRRRDD!!
yeah but he needs Electrolytes
It is an illusion that you can express something as complex as intelligence in a single number anyway. A lot of aspects of intelligence aren't covered in these tests and they don't take into account that some people won't do well under pressure or when faced with written questions etc. They usually favour simple fact knowledge and never account for the of shrewdness an uneducated farmer might have. Social intelligence doesn't count. And everything is theoretical - take the people with the highest IQs and drop them somewhere in the jungle, they won't last long because the being able to name all the plants isn't useful. If the characters of the big bang theory was in that situation, my money would be on Penny.
So we need a test that can measure improvement/degradation.
Perhaps a test that uses cross-referenced questions to challenge each aspect of intelligence..
Sure knowing Calculus makes you math smart, but being able to reduce a more general problem to the real choice is practically smart..
Also emotional intelligence allows someone to choose the solution that optimizes for thier chosen priorities (self/family/tribe/everyone). This affects things like do you let your dog shit on someone's lawn and leave it there???!

For years I was worried about us ending up in an Idiocracy-style future. Nowadays I think we have more of a South Park style future. Which isn’t much better to be honest...
@Eric Miret The IQ may be rising 3 points every 10 years... but are the IQ tests staying the same, or are they also getting dumber where a rise in 3 points is based off the standards the test provides? Like, an IQ of 100 today could mean something different than an IQ of 100 50 years ago, or even 50 years from now. As long as the IQ tests remain the same. then sure, a rise in 3 points is impressive. But if the tests are changing to accommodate lower IQs... then the 3 point rises don't make a lick of difference.
I am not saying you're wrong, I am just giving some thought on what other factors could be played in this scenario. :-)
@@JamesIanni I would add IQ is not an accurate indicator of intelligence. There are plenty of high IQ dumb asses around.
Clear cut idiocy is way easier to deal with than our pseudo-intellecual reality
Breaking The Chamber: I know what you mean. I've met my share of highly intelligent people who have very little common sense.
Honestly, how can IQ change? 100 by definition measures average IQ. How can the average ever be higher than 100 when 100 is what average even mean?.
No matter how dumb or smart we get as a society, the average person will always have an IQ of 100.
"My 1st wife was a 'tard...she's a pilot now"...the genius is a plane crashing into CostCo later in the movie.

I remember it as the scariest horror film I've ever seen, because I knew at that moment after watching it, that this was the most accurate description ever foretold, of the future we were quickly going to be heading towards.
Fast forward 13 years to 2019, and it's all come true so far.

luckily if it gets bad enough survival of the fittest will come back into play and it will either slowly or swiftly bounce back
Q) IDIOCRACY: Is It Deep or Dumb?
A) Yes, it is becoming reality.
Wow. Really well done. I like your unpacking.
I don't care if it's deep or dumb. I've seen it SO many times and will continue to do so whenever the urge strikes me. Love it.
I think the movie was just inspired by the real world... So more like "Has it been true all along?"
DING DING DING! People forget anything predicting the future is really just social commentary on the present.
Fuzzy Dunlop He didn’t really touch on the fact that smart people wait too long and eventually just don’t have kids while the less gifted intellectually people have like 10 kids aha I feel like that’s true to an extent. Although that doesn’t guarantee that all the kids will be dumb...
It was a stupid and boring movie just like napoleon dynamite was a stupid and boring movie
Kinda reminds me of China syndrom- one year before Harrisburg, and Wag the Dog a year before the Irak bombings (go Clinton :P) and then this several years before Trump but almost prophetic in some aspects.
@@MossySparks I think that's an idiocracy fact, not a real world fact.
What bothers me most of this movie is that it somehow mistakes alienation for intelligence. It reeks of "I am smarter than everyone else, so there is no point in relating to the world or people around me; so I'll just watch Rick and Morty and post comments on reddit"
you can tell they are smarter than everyone else because they reek something awful
3:29 A CZcams comment I read pointed this out: it’s not a fair comparison to say our reality has become Idiocracy because they put a random dude who was found to be the smartest man alive in charge & trusted & listened to him, and the real world wouldn’t do that.
Precisely. Meaning the people of Idiocracy actually have more sense than the majority of today's modern America.
Terry loves Politics and Terry loves Wisecrack
Terry loves love and yoghurt and everything else is dumb ; )
Terry wants my photograph, Terry says our love will last and he should know, Terry is a tough as Marlon Brando....oops sorry triggered the caramel cranial cover
Terry loves political satire
The Babylon 5 episode "The Deconstruction of Falling Stars" has a better example of the way public discourse might be devolving.
It's highlighted by Delenn's comment about it.
"You do not wish to know .. anything. You wish only to speak. That which you know, you ignore, because it is inconvenient. That which you do not know, you invent."
that the bonehead?
@@luciferangelica 😠
"Babylon 5's a big pile of shit!"
Sounds like religion.
For me i have always love kash's turth parable. " turth is a 3 enged sword. There is your turth , there turth and the Turth. One of the most important lessons i ever heard in life. Thank you again for reminding me of how important a show B5 was. 😀👏👍
Idiocracy isnt a documentary, its a handbook!
In light of events since this piece, a revisitation/update is sorely needed....
i was watching this on comedy central one time and they blurred out the b-f'ers main sign, but the next shot showed it unblurred in the window behind them
Tha fact we have higher scores in IQ tests today doesn't mean we are more inteligent. It simply means we are better at solving IQ tests.
The issue with this is that IQ tests arent something you can necessarily practice for per say. It measures a few out of the 7 types of intelligence using randomized questions that have to be solved by coming up with a method to on the spot
@@jthodges4741 Just interested, do we have any evidence for there being 7 types of intelligence we are capable of measuring?
The average IQ is always considered to be 100, but what that 100 really means is not constant through time. In other words, we are better at creating IQ tests that make us look more intelligent.
OR the tests have been dumbed down.
Still think it's hilarious that the guy who narrates is the guy from NFL films.
And five years later... The IQs are decreasing.
Mike Judge is the Nostradamus of our time.
He's a genius.
He sees around corners
Maybe you should've watched that video
His king of the hill novel is the best
5:57 Bullshit. Attend a school in an inner city. Or in a economically depressed area. The kids that show aptitude by answering questions in class correctly or trying to point out errors are ridiculed, ostracized, and all this with the authority figures either ignoring it or actively abetting it. When a literature book for an advanced class costs $100 or more and someone takes it and rips the cover off and tears out random pages because they don't like "kids that ain't keepin' it real," yes, you do indeed have a culture of anti-intellectualism. It's not understood to be such; when it happens, it's that "dude trying to make the rest of us look bad" or "white boy think he smart" or "Uncle Tom trying to forget where he come from." So yeah, misunderestimate all you like, it does exist. The really odd thing about it is that it isn't racist or otherwise discriminatory by nature as it impacts any kid who exhibits superior performance regardless of what the kid looks like.
truth man. anti intellectualism is still heavily prevalent
Same. A classmate of mine back in high school said that daVinci helped build the trojan horse. When i pointed out that daVinci wouldn't exist until millenia later, i was branded as the asshole
I think this is a problem with African American Culture Mostly, as an Conseqens of slavery
This is a lie
thank you Ughma
Should’ve waited to see what comes next lol
One of the best movies ever made, as it is damn scary a it's representing, pretty accurately, how things are decaying. In many ways it follows the ideas of A. Huxley. Also, just asking that question says a lot 😂
