Thanks to Idiocracy, We Know What the Future Looks Like With Trump as President!
It's all fun and games until Donald Trump becomes President. On Wednesday, Idiocracy cowriter Etan Cohen took to Twitter to basically confirm what we've all been thinking. "I never expected #idiocracy to become a documentary," he wrote, suggesting that, with Donald Trump inching closer to becoming the Republican presidential nominee in this year's elections, the satirical film is hitting a little too close to home.
Now, before you call me stupid for even suggesting Idiocracy is becoming our country's reality, take a moment to consider the values of the film's fictional future: guns, coporate money, sex, and highly offensive language (often used to make fun of people). So yeah, a proud NRA-supporting candidate — who calls people "p*ssies" and "losers," has said, "Part of the beauty of me is that I am very rich," and mentioned that if Ivanka wasn't his daughter he'd be dating her — isn't that far off from Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. Let's examine the evidence, shall we? Welcome to the future if Trump becomes President of the United States.
Machine guns for everyone!
All entertainment, all the time.
Gatorade will replace water.
Movies will be REALLY mature.
Presidential parades will look like this.
Advertising will be blunt and encourage healthy habits.
Sensitivity will go out the window.
Need proof? Here you go.
