Idiocracy was just idiots, not an actively malicious group.

Non-fiction.

Honestly, its always been anti-intellectualism. Sure not all smart people are good people, but in general empathy is a sign of intelligence, while malice and stupidity go hand in hand.

Edit: There's also the fact that the smart tropey villains also often happen to be wealthy, and as we all know being wealthy means someone is smart/s

Dr Evil is pretty dumb, he only surrounded himself with intelligent people. Still not an equivalent since DT is hiring idiots.

Fun fact: DT can mean alcohol withdrawal and the symptoms resemble Trump. "Severe alcohol withdrawal symptoms such as shaking, confusion, and hallucinations."

If they were intelligent, we wouldn't even figure out they're villains

I watched all 3 atlas shrugged movies. It basically comes to down to "if I can't have it then no one can"

Sprinkled in with CEOs on the factory floor rolling up their sleeves and stopping an accident. A true work of fiction.

I did a report on that book in high school. I got through maybe 15 pages before losing all willpower. Then I read a bunch of summaries and other reviews. I got an A. I think my teacher hadn't read it either.

A very underrated show.

I kind of thought this was the joke. Many many dystopian plots are about governments ran by corporations and filled with foreign spies.

Gotta drain the swamp to make room for the cesspool.
