Terry Crews' character in Idiocracy was non-satirically a better President at this point.

That movie promotes eugenics, discrimination and ultimately genocide

I wouldn't use it as a comparison. It is made by a Nazi.

It's not being serious. I understand intelligence isn't a breeding stat, and smart people having kids isn't going to produce a smart society, if it would only talk about reduced education and cultural trends as the cause of mass idiocy, but that's really not what the film is about. It's not actually advocating for eugenics.
