For fans of the movie #Idiocracy, note that #CyrilMKornbluth wrote the story The Marching Morons in 1951...
He was way ahead of his time.
Fair point π
Kornbluth's bit in that story where they wake the guy up, saying he's from "back when people were smart" always stuck with me, though...
I'm probably misquoting it (it's been a looooong time since I read it), but the similarities between Marching Morons & Idiocracy struck me as rather strong.
