Is an utopia possible?

>> No.15129394

If it does nobody wants it

>> No.15129492

>>15129388
There isn't "an" utopia, there are various, at times specifically designed utopias. So maybe, some local, specialized kind is possible, but generally I gotta say no.

>> No.15129495

>>15129388
Yes. In fact, all are possible.

Animal Crossing is the closest thing to an Utopia

what did you not read the phenomenology close enough? Obviously we just have negate every form of Being until there's nothing left to negate. Then everything will be perfect. We'll all be together in the LCL.

a utopia is a community of good relationships

Yes but anyone who can't feel strong empathy, sociopaths, psychopaths, narcissists, would have to be destroyed.

>> No.15129696

If there were an end to conflict and need man would recreate them if anything just to not kill himself. Every utopia is a dystopia. There is no difference between the two.

What does the word "utopia" mean etymologically?

Not in the way we've hoped for, no. It will ultimately take anti-human forces to bring the dialectic to a screeching halt, and finally crack our egg. Rejoice for the time is upon us.

The nonexistent island

The original Utopia, by Thomas More, was a collectivist agricultural island-country that somehow never got conquered by urban developed neighbors. Utopias are dumb

If it is, it certainly cannot be democratic, or even allow alternative thought at all. People are too fallible; they'd make it non-utopian.

It's 'a utopia', not 'an'. The 'u' has a consonant sound: (y)ew-topia
