unsure why you're getting downvotes, the movie was a satire of the aughties and yet grows more poignant with time though exaggerated it is compelling in its depictions of politics, family planning, television, policing, language, waste management, control through sedation, food, health, standardised tests, and on and on hell, it's essentially predicated on a beloved sf author's dismissive pith: There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and
there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism
has been a constant thread winding its way through our
political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion
that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as
your knowledge.
