The premise in the intro sequence about genetics and intelligence is bogus, but anti-intellectualism is a huge problem and this movie called how bad it was going to get. Bad things happen when people don’t value science or rational thinking, even if that’s not the only source of problems.
This is true, but even the most passionate anti-intellectual movements will lose out in the end. Not embracing science and rational thinking is a huge disadvantage in the long run as technology and educated workers make a nation more powerful. Meanwhile, every passionate political movement will die out eventually, as people always want novel solutions when problems are never solved.
