Discussion What does your utopia look like?

[RiftbornVeil]

Can you envision a utopia, a so-called "perfect society?" If so, do you believe humanity will ever achieve it? Are you unable to even imagine a utopia?

a society where we all genuinely loved, respected and cared for one another… unfortunately I do not think anything close to a utopia will ever be achieved

This is something I daydream about very often. I like to imagine a utopic world where everything is perfect.

In this utopic world, everyone is happy. Everyone is loved. Bullying, prejudice, violence, and abuse, are non-existent. There would be no need for law enforcement, and no need for government. Having to "work for a living" would be a foreign concept.

Unfortunately it is impossible for this utopic world to ever exist, as it goes against nature itself. Humans, animals, and many of the fundamental pillars of existence would have to completely change first before this utopic world could ever begin to become a possibility, and that will never happen.

No, only non-existence is perfect to me, for me the true problem lies in existence itself and I'd never wish for this torturous, dreadful and cruel existence I just always saw as a mistake, all that existence ever does is just cause harm and suffering torturing existing beings and there's just so much evil in this terrible, dreadful existence.

All I want is to erase this existence that just causes all terrible, dreadful suffering with no limit as to how much one can be tortured, no matter what only non-existence could ever be positive to me. I see the existence of life as the most terrible, devastating tragedy and the fact that humans choose to impose this torturous existence onto others is so terrible to me, to exist really does mean to suffer and I suffer simply from being burdened with this existence, for me every second is torture to be conscious.

Hmmm. Perhaps a world where either everything is free, or everyone would get the same amount of money (a lot of money). Only about >40% would be spent on necessities (food, rent, water, electricity, etc.) and the rest would be whatever the person wants to do with it. That way, you'd think everyone would have everything they need... And nobody would need to steal. But people are greedy and will always want more - also it's unrealistic that we would get money for nothing.

Only in terms of how it might look. Lots of nature and white, clean architecture. But, in terms of practicality- no- I can't envisage a world where everyone has both free choice but also has all their needs satiated.

We all need different things. We compete for the same needs. To figure out a system where everyone is fulfilled. Everyone finds love, does a job or contributes to society doing something they love, gets to die when they want to. How could that even work? We'd all need to fall in love with the correct person. We'd need to be able to let people die and vanish from our lives without mourning them. I just think life would need to be so artificial to get it to work like that. Maybe if it's all we ever knew, it wouldn't feel strange but, it feels strange to contemplate.

Zero chance. Greed is ruining everything and no country can be considered safe from violent crime now. Everything trending wrong. What happened? I know I screwed up my life but also how did the world go so insane?

 

[FadingSnowFake]

I would just want to live with my person, as far as possible from other humans. I'd prefer to be part of a utopia where people can just be left alone.

 

[SilentSadness]

Utopias only exist in fiction, watchable through the screen but always out of reach

 

[noname223]

Sanctioned Suicide but getting money for my daily posting. I think though this would backfire in the longrun and it would become a chore with performance pressure. So be careful what you wish for.

 

[FoxSauce]

Just being able to walk down the street without violence (not just for wemon) anyone really.

Respect eachother despite race, gender or even what you do as a person.

Not being devided by political standpoint or even someone religion or whatever they believe in.

People actually helping not filled with greed and pretending to help a cause, no wars, no violence, no oppression or any kind.

Any health is taken seriously.People not filled by greed and appearances, and live our jobs not live paycheck to paycheck.

Also no abuse (any type)

Seems like a lot but also so difficult to obtain...well impossble, really.

 

[Always-in-trouble]

Absolutely not. Some people actually like killing or raping or whatever heinous crime for whatever reason. Groups of people also have too many different codes of the potential best sastifaction for societyThe fundamental problem with an Utopia is there is no perfect solution to make everyone happy, and needs a huge majority to make it work.
