      When all the nefarious people encouraging this abuse die off.

      You’ll notice that they don’t exist in the future world of Idiocracy. That’s because it’s a fictional world, with a very basic premise only vaguely related to reality.

      The problem isn’t that people are dumb, it’s that the people in power want to keep people dumb. Without that, it’s not like we’ll continue to devolve into helpless infantile people with no ability to think for ourselves.

    We’re like a department store to shop in the United States, and you’ll pay a 25% tariff

    That’s not how any of that works.

    That does make sense. Smartest thing he has said so far.

    We already have “Miss Germany” etc. Why did we not think of using that term for the respective leader?
