Except the leadership in Idiocracy was largely benevolent, just stupid for "some reason".

Our leadership is largely malign narcissistic power mongers who seek to exploit ignorance for their own gain.

I imagine the implication is that no cryptocurrency stuff is inserted in the spot that google once occupied.

One would hope the collective hand of the American populace, but that has rarely been the case in the past.

They're conflating tech with tech bros.

Tech can and does make lots of things that make our lives longer and better. Just not most of the consumer level shit that is constantly peddled by snake oil sellers. That tech is not meant to make your lives easier, it's meant to get more money out of you without giving it up to the little people at service level.

The problem isn't the tech, it's the people who are controlling the tech.
