    The movie is a comedy, not a serious attempt to diagnose the world’s or America’s problems, but the emphasis on ‘‘only stupid people are breeding’’ in the beginning of the film is one of the causes of the dystopia, that is eugenics, which is a disproven racist part of academia that had it’s part in the nazi movement. So it’s a dangerous idea to promote, but that’s not what the comedy is about. It’s just a gag.
