    In Idiocracy, people are anti-science. If you were to read a book, they would call you a nerd and kill you.

    In real life, people believe in pseudo-science. Everyone read books, and believes that to be the ultimate truth and everybody else is wrong.

    In Idiocracy, you don’t have flat-earthers, anti-vaxxers, climate change deniers. You have dumb people proud of not knowing stuff.

    So there is still a difference.

      You are vastly over estimating literacy rates. And you cant really make that statement on any grounds as nothing of the like was discussed.
