Idiocracy is clearly a combination of Idiot and -cracy. So what exactly does -cracy mean? The most familiar Mr. De in Chinese is democracy, demo is for the people and the people, and -cracy naturally means governance and management.

Now that I think about it, why should I borrow another five hundred years from the sky? Five hundred years later, stupid people ruled the country, and the primitive desire for pornography and violence filled every corner of the world.

Why are the stupid people in the film stupid? Joe's mediocrity made waves among stupid people because he didn't have scannable identification information. Joe does not belong to this symbolic order, and everyone in the symbolic order is "normal". Joe's final identity can only be Not Sure, that is, uncertainty. Identity is the deterministic coordinate in the symbolic order, and it is also named as uncertainty. Joe's "intelligence" has become the biggest paradox in the symbolic system. Joe's uncertainty presents itself in the land of fools as a spill and a wound, a rift torn apart by IQ. Lacan's so-called Big Other plays an important role here. On the one hand, he succeeds in making everyone vulgar through the change of language style, and on the other hand, he continues to use the medium to brainwash the fool, who has no other choice.
