Trump is a cancer, parasite, and virus, all in one.
Personally, I don't think many people rely on Trump for medical advice. But in this case, he didn't actually suggest people do anything--he asked a series of questions.
A SIGHT FOR SORE EYESAND THE CURE
I loved this movie when it came out, when I was a libertarian. I dislike it now that I'm a socialist.
It fit right in with the Daily Show Style approach to politics of 2006, it was used as touchstone during Trump's election and early presidency but I think that liberals, progressives and leftists need to stop acting like Idiocracy is any kind of thoughtful nor left leaning satire. It's neither left nor thoughtful, it's kind of funny though.
This video articulates those thoughts for me so I'd don't have to.

Revealed: leader of group peddling bleach as coronavirus 'cure' wrote to Trump this week
Mark Grenon wrote to Trump saying chlorine dioxide ‘can rid the body of Covid-19’ days before the president promoted disinfectant as treatment
The leader of the most prominent group in the US peddling potentially lethal industrial bleach as a “miracle cure” for coronavirus wrote to Donald Trump at the White House this week.
In his letter, Mark Grenon told Trump that chlorine dioxide – a powerful bleach used in industrial processes such as textile manufacturing that can have fatal side-effects when drunk – is “a wonderful detox that can kill 99% of the pathogens in the body”. He added that it “can rid the body of Covid-19”.
A few days after Grenon dispatched his letter, Trump went on national TV at his daily coronavirus briefing at the White House on Thursday and promoted the idea that disinfectant could be used as a treatment for the virus. To the astonishment of medical experts, the US president said that disinfectant “knocks it out in a minute. One minute!”
He went on to say: “Is there a way we can do something, by an injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that.”
Trump did not specify where the idea of using disinfectant as a possible remedy for Covid-19 came from, and the source for his notion remains obscure. But the Guardian has learned that peddlers of chlorine dioxide – industrial bleach – have been making direct approaches to the White House in recent days.
Grenon styles himself as “archbishop” of Genesis II – a Florida-based outfit that claims to be a church but which in fact is the largest producer and distributor of chlorine dioxide bleach as a “miracle cure” in the US. He brands the chemical as MMS, “miracle mineral solution”, and claims fraudulently that it can cure 99% of all illnesses including cancer, malaria, HIV/Aids as well as autism.
Since the start of the pandemic, Genesis II has been marketing MMS as a cure to coronavirus. It advises users, including children, to mix three to six drops of bleach in water and drink it.
I think this is taking it a step too far, but you never know Trump is corrupt....... and a moron, always a moron.
Thoughtful or not, funny or not, Idiocracy is a prophecy come true.
This video is a massive reach, the kind of reach, that grabs for a straw, but sticks its entire hand into a bear trap instead.
Reach? the movie's whole premise is eugenics.
But okay, how would America be fundamentally different if everyone in America watched live performances of Euripides instead of WWE, how would we be fundamentally different if everyone listened to Mozart instead of Lil' John. I'm not meaning to **** on pro wrestling or rap music but in Idiocracy, smart is correlated with consuming the classics of Western Civilization.
You know who voted for Trump? Guys with marble statues in their avatars, guys who love 300, people with PhDs in the classics who compared Trump to Pericles.
Even if Trump didn't win because the voting public was more discerning, we'd still be on the road to fascism and ecological destruction. The problem is lack of power due to a lack of solidarity, on the part of workers who let capital run rough shot over them.
Idiocracy is funny but its analysis of why things are bad totally misses the mark
it fits into what we’ve heard about him for years. not bout to give dude anything close to benefit of the doubt
being dumb doesn’t disqualify you from being a greedy self preserving *******, it just means you’re dumb enough to keep getting caught
That's the hilarity of this entire situation. We have Trump supporters defending the fact that Trump is saying things that can kill people, but the only ones who follow his advice are fellow supporters.I'm not bothered by Trump openly theorizing about ingesting that stuff at all, only his followers take that **** to heart and put action to it.
Plot against America was GREAT! Any of y’all peep it?
Been waiting for it to finish so I could binge it during a quarantine weekend. It’s that legit?
