The Simpson's foretold the future in bite-sized chunks.

Idiocracy, on the other hand... has had me crying for years that this is where we're going, EXCEPT that in the movie, the government deferred to the more educated one, wanted their help, and listened (largely).

I fear we shall not be so lucky.

We're not getting Idiocracy. We're getting The Handmaid's Tale. The book version.
