They found the smartest person in the world and listened to them to fix their problems... Not at all accurate.
That is the typical internet response whenever that movie is brought up in this context. But that response fails to take into consideration that they only did that after not having done that for hundreds of years until the point where the movie begins.
The movie is about smart people not breeding. The smart people stoped existing. It wasn't a decision to ignore smart people and listen to dumbasses, there were only dumbasses. The obvious problem with the movie is that it's about eugenics (which doesn't work that way), but your take changes the plot to be about something that it isn't.
Once zoomers can vote and Mr Beast gets elected, things will change.
Is he that Jesus Christ looking guy who's really snarky about other YouTubers?
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Over half of Zoomers can already vote. Gen Z is roughly 1997-2012.
Unfortunately the younger they are the more likely they are to be conservative it seems. More poisoned by the algorithms.
Yeah I’m a zoomer (97) and I’ve been able to vote for a decade lol
We're in the time he was frozen. We have 40 years or so before that part happens.
we're in the "what if they didn't" timeline....
We’re only 20 years after Joe got frozen and he hasn’t been thawed yet. We still have 480 years before things get that bad.
Pretty sure we're speed running that part.
Who knows. We need a movie set in between the time frames we see to tell us.
They also tried to publicly execute him.
You make a convincing argument.
