CREATIONISTS ARE IDIOTS, AS ALL I CAN SEE IS STUPID DESIGN - The handrail on our way to idiocracy

"And there was a time in this country, a long time ago, when reading wasn't just for fags neither was writing. People wrote books and movies, movies that had stories so you cared whose ass it was and why it was farting, and I believe that time can come again!" - Idiocracy

We live in prosperity in such an enlightened, modern nation,
where the truth is distorted, starting off with education.
There's a whole generation suffering from mind deflation,
the monotonic flickering sent their brains on vacation. But these pictures are just the society's reflection, the log of our dumbing-down and our "lack-of-interest infection".
School desks filled with moronic girls and insane boys,
who don't know how to read, but are drowning in toys.
In this world of too much noise!
Oppressed without force, silenced without gag.
The modes of control they have prevailed.
Moving pictures to rock the cradles,
empty phrases to mesmerize.
A mass-Ritalin to be
an anchor in the haste of life.
Communication's death by one-way-conversations suffocated the last bit of intelligence,
in the wasted minds of
the sedated, apathetic nation.
Consume-seductions, brainless "whores" and steroid-freaks
- as if there was nothing else.
But who's to blame?
We can't complain,
it's a portrait painted by ourselves.
