Why the hell is it still considered acceptable to make fun of

They are not mentally handicapped, they are just idiots. Everyone knows it's not ok to be an idiot.

What's the difference. If it were just one idiot, I might see your point, but in both of these cases, it's a whole FAMILY of idiots, suggesting that the stupidity is some sort of inherited genetic condition and therefore not really their fault.

the childrens books are highly moralists. they try to tell you not to be this stupid.

Did you even read the books? In both the Stupids and the Dumb Bunnies, the family doesn't get into trouble for being retarded, but they do cause collateral damage to other people. If anything, the books show that it's better to be a stupid person among normals than to be normal around the stupid (a possible allusion to Schopenhauer's Councils and Maxim's.)

It's also not okay to be mentally handicapped. What is your point?

I still can't believe they made a feature-length live action film about the Stupids while we still don't have any good adaptations of Vonnegut or Stanislaw Lem's books.
