Utopia

Utopia is the theory that if humans are given enough time they will eventually create a perfect world; a place so unrealistic that it can only be in your dreams. In a utopia everything is serene and free of any and all problems imaginable, but it is a place that doesn’t exist. Every utopia has faults which makes it a dystopia. Not everyone will agree in a utopia which will cause chaos, thus making a utopia an unfeasible thing.

Ex. Neverland, from Peter Pan. It seems perfect there, to be forever young is great, to have no supervision is what every kid wants. But the utopia becomes a dystopia when the lost boys realize they might want to grow up, the problem of captain Hook, and when their leader/friend, Peter Pan, might leave.

utopia

A Greek word means a perfect place that does not exist. Sir Thomas More wrote a fiction on a perfect country showing what was going on in this country but did not give reasons why that could or could not happen.

Utopia

Noun. The perfect society; theoretically impossible but practically verifiable, for example by a democratic referendum. IMO, given the necessary conditions of Utopia's survival and recognisability as the perfect society, the characteristics of a Utopian society - survivalism, rationalism, freedom, and happiness - may be derived and society may remodel itself along Utopian lines.

Etymology: from eu (Gk. good) and topos (Gk. place). First used by Sir Thomas More in his book Utopia, c. 1542.

Since perfection is impossible, it is sufficient for citizens of Utopia to work towards a society that is very close to perfection.

Utopia is the future of politics in this country.

Who says Utopia is necessarily impractical?

Utopianswer

A combination of "utopia" and "answer". It occurs when a naive person has not yet understood and accepted human nature, so they provide simple solutions to complex problems. They may also attempt to shame those that do not agree with their utopianswer. This is because their solution is lazily extracted from the moral high ground, but would only work in a fantasy because it is predicated on believing that the rest of the world thinks (or should think) the same way that they do.

Person 1: If we ban all violent video games then there wouldn't be anymore mass shootings.

Person 2: That's a utopianswer...

Person 1: So you're saying you're okay with kids dying?
