And here you find civilized man.
Civilized man refused to adapt himself to his environment. Instead he adapted his environment to suit him. So he built cities, roads, vehicles, machinery. And he put up power lines to run his labour-saving devices. But he didn't know when to stop. The more he improved his surroundings to make life easier the more complicated he made it.

Now his children are sentenced to 10 to 15 years of school, to learn how to survive in this complex and hazardous habitat.
And civilized man, who refused to adapt to his surroundings now finds he has to adapt and re-adapt every hour of the day to his self-created environment.

For instance, if it's Monday and 7:30 comes up, you have to dis-adapt from your domestic surroundings and re-adapt yourself to an entirely different environment.
8:00 means everybody has to look busy. 10:30 means you can stop looking busy for 15 minutes. And then, you have to look busy again.

VS:

They must be the most contented people in the world. They have no crime, no punishment, no violence, no laws, no police, judges, rulers or bosses. They believe that the gods put only good and useful things on the earth for them.

ln this world of theirs, nothing is bad or evil. Even a poisonous snake is not bad. You just have to keep away from the sharp end.

They're very gentle people. They'll never punish a child or even speak harshly to it. So the kids are extremely well-behaved. Their games are cute and inventive.

The characteristic which really makes them different from all other races is that they have no sense of ownership at all. Where they live, there's nothing you can own. Only trees and grass and animals.

These Bushmen have never seen a stone or a rock in their lives. The hardest things they know are wood and bone. They live in a gentle world, where nothing is as hard as rock, steel or concrete.

A funny comparison of "civilized vs uncivilized" people.

The full movie is actually 1h48min long, go download it, the youtube version is censored (maybe bushman naked skin was a bit too much?)
Anywho, its a hilarious movie, great humor and fun gags. This style of movie is rare, I do like the simplicity, its good entertainment. I find the living philosophy of the bushmen to be exemplary, we could learn a lot from them.

#Idiocracy - 02/03 is the date it takes place

The plot follows U.S. Army #librarian Joe Bauers, who wakes up five hundred years in the future after a botched government #hibernation experiment to find himself in a #dystopian #society run by #corporations, where #evolution has made #humanity #stupid because the benefits of #technology made it unnecessary for people to be #intelligent
and physically fit to survive
