Center
Primary
The film critiques a universal societal decline rooted in anti-intellectualism and unchecked consumerism, offering a non-ideological solution centered on common sense and practical problem-solving rather than promoting specific political doctrines.
The movie features visible diversity in its cast, particularly in depicting a future society, but this does not appear to stem from explicit DEI-driven recasting of traditionally white roles. The narrative primarily focuses on societal intelligence decline and does not critique traditional identities, instead positively framing the traditional white male protagonist as the intelligent hero.
Secondary
Idiocracy does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's satirical focus is entirely on societal intelligence decline, consumerism, and political incompetence, with no narrative elements touching upon sexual orientation or gender identity.
The film does not feature any scenes where a female character engages in and wins close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents. The primary female character, Rita, is not involved in any such physical altercations.
Idiocracy is an original film with characters created specifically for its narrative. There are no pre-existing source materials, historical figures, or legacy characters whose gender could have been altered for this production.
Idiocracy is an original film from 2006, not an adaptation of prior material or a biopic. All characters were created for this specific movie, meaning there is no pre-existing canonical or historical race for any character to be swapped from.
