      Disagreeing with you and agreeing with him are two different things. You are advocating for the sterilisation of people and their kids because of bad life choices.

        Not exactly. His school costs $15,000 a year and advocates his asshole beliefs. So what will these children grow up to become? Little Ben Shapiros? I’m good.

        I’m not saying kill the kids. I’m just saying stop them from producing more idiots.

          Practicing eugenics on children because of their parents decisions is disgusting. Doing it on anyone involuntarily is not a good look (putting it lightly).

          Mike Judge showed us what will happen in the future if they do. I, personally, don’t wanna be part of Idiocracy

          Basing it on a movie… shows your unhingement from reality.

          Edit: consider this: if your parent murdered someone, would you be okay with being sterilised because they did something abhorrent and may have passed it down to you?

          Double edit: even though I think Shapiro is a prick, I would not wish for him and other people I do not like the rhetoric of to be sterilised either. Do you actually think he should be removed from the gene pool?

              It’s no better, not sure what else I expected. Oh well. Back to… Well, maybe normal forums instead.

        Beyond the eugenics and general elitism, my least favorite thing about Idiocracy is that most of its fans seem to think they’re the poor, outbred geniuses when the reality is they just can’t get laid.

        Terry Crews can only carry the burdens of that movie so far.

          Idiocracy is a fascinating movie. The first time i remember it being mentioned online, people were like: haha people are stupid and getting dumber. A few years later when Idiocracy was mentioned, the notion was: actually you didn’t understand the movie, the movie is about mediocrity and people laugh about the dumb people are stupid. Then for two or three years now we seem to be back at: haha the movie is funny because people are getting dumber. But i already see a shift in the Idiocracy force.

          You mean Terry Crews who willingly participated in an Amazon commercial and was defending it after a shit storm. That Terry Crews?

      Out-naziing the Nazis is a bold move.

      Complaining about downvotes is a bitch move.

      Also, the reason people don’t like your idea is because it’s draconian eugenics trash.
