Just because it doesn't support an explicit breeding program, doesn't mean it can't dabble in negative eugenics.
For someone that says he isn't pro-eugenics, Mike Judge certainly made a very pro-eugenics movie. It's simply undeniable, whatever his intentions.
A common criticism of Idiocracy is that it's most appreciated by some of the people it purports to mock, faux intellectuals. I don't think it's a coincidence how many of its most fervent online supporters lack the intellectual honesty to admit such an obvious fact.
Given how much on the movie is spent dunking on stupid people (i.e. stand-ins for republicans), I don't think that's surprising at all.
