March 22, 2016 - PRLog -- Azaria Press has released Invasion of the Dumb Snatchers, a satirical twist on the classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The novel humorously explores the cultural implications of our deep desire to remain stupid.
The population of the most powerful nation on earth is dumb. When looking at a map of the world, 29 percent of Americans can't identify the Pacific Ocean.
Consider the phenomenon of Donald Trump. Consider that the more stupid his statements, the higher his poll results. It seems that stupid is what a growing number of Americans want.
Stupidity is at war with intelligence. What if stupidity wins?
The Story
Something is seriously wrong in America. Growing numbers of people are embracing sustainability, efficiency, common sense, and economic sanity. The rapid spread of intelligence is ruining our country and threatening our tradition of doing everything as stupidly as possible.
Only one man knows what's really happening. Only Miles Bennell, assistant manager at Burger King, knows that aliens are replacing our bodies with exact duplicates.
Will he save us before the aliens destroy America? Will he get Becky, the waitress at the local Hooters, to dump her idiot boyfriend Geoffrey so he can touch her boobs?
