Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Idiocracy is a lame movie and not as deep as redditors and lemmites makes it out to be. (lemmy.world)

It's basically a comedy with the subtlety of a guy repeatedly screaming "I am beating you with a sledgehammer" as he hits you with a sledgehammer.

The joke is that everyone is dumb and the future and its painfully spoon-fed to the audience ad nusuesm. And now 15 years later everyone constantly brings up that movie when ever something happens and its the most over commented thing I've ever seen. It makes me hate the movie more. Its the peak movie for pseudo intellectuals.

Why is this movie great? It’s accurate AF, that’s why!

What’s the stupidest pair of footwear you can imagine? Probably, maybe Crocs?? If that was your answer, it was also the costume designer and Mike Judge’s thought too…which is why everyone in the future wears them.

…now to address the “why is it great”

Walk outside and tell me more than half the people you meet aren’t fucking retards. Then look down and you will see at least half of those idiots are wearing Crocs. Mike Judge=Nostradamus? 🤔 Maybe
