    Oh man, we’re gonna get an Idiocracy world where porn is illegal, not one where you can get a handjob at the Costco Starbucks 😢

    As someone else once said and I am paraphrasing uncredited because I don’t remember who they are: “In the Idiocracy universe, when they discovered a man who was smarter than everyone else, they put him in charge of stuff. That makes it a wiser world than our own”.

      Canada is going to implement the same once Poilievre takes over because Canadians are dumb and “bored” with Trudeau, so they will see what being “bored” gets them. Idiots.

        Unless you elect the followers of the “Queen of Canada” to parliament on the Trucker Convoy Party ticket, you will never get a Prime Minister anywhere near as bad as Trump.

          I mean, I think the digital ID bullshit is pretty bad, but that’s just one thing he’s talked about so far. We’ll see how far he is actually willing to go over the duration of his tenure and what other absolutely insane bullshit he can come up with.

      Despite their struggles, politically and socially, Idiocracy is an utopia. As far as I can remember, people genuinely worked to try to make the world better, even if they were failing at it
