He could also form coherent sentences, was in Terry Crews-shape, and didn't shit himself once. We're already well into Idiocracy 2: Electric Boogaloo territory.
Yeah, there weren't leagues of malevolent rich assholes seeking to make the world worse for their own profits. Just a bunch of idiots who apparently forgot how to think.
And stepped down as President in the end to let someone else lead. For a better comparison of leadership now, look at Don't Look Up. Far more realistic in so many ways.
My favorite thing is taking pictures of them grappling, then putting a black censor bar over the trunks so it looks like they're having sex. Turns out it's really really easy to make it look gay(er).

How is this not the Idiocracy timeline? I'd anything it feels like the pace of the "dumbing down" is too fast.

The president in Idiocracy sought the help of someone smart.
Y’all need to remember that and realize we are way past this movie.

Ignorant but willing to learn. And laugh about farts, not violence.
IIRC. Maybe I should re-watch it.

Absolutely, idiocracy was too optimistic. In their version, it took 500 years to get there.
We'll be there in a generation, maybe 2. (If we have that many generations.)

Ya, at least he recognized there was someone out there smarter than him and brought him in as an advisor.

I hate how increasingly accurate this movie has become.

As is usually pointed out, the similarities are not strong.
President Camacho actually wanted to help his people, hired the smartest person he could find, and listened to his advice.

The problem with that is the world has to get bad enough for President Camacho to help the world. We're in the Pre-Camacho era

I literally saw a comment about a month ago on Lemmy saying "what's next, wrestling matches in the white house?" Or something like that.

Probably just a coincidence that Paramount is purchasing UFC exclusive steaming rights in a seven year deal.

his creation of trying to make the trashy SLAP-fighting a thing should tell you as much, he mustve seen the UFC is declining, and need a new grift.
