It is more complicated unfortunately. Effectively every Utopia is someone else’s dystopian nightmare.

For all the people who love the white picket fence fantasy there are even more that see it as a hellscape.

For every positive thing that exists there is a negative thing on the other side of it. And yes the degree of positive and negative can have different weights.

Hmm, you reason well and are quite right. The so-called utopia is a comfortable cage, in essence, people live there like animals in a zoo, but at least they are safe.

Damn, for some reason I remembered a passage from novel: Imagine how people used to live with their families in houses, it's so disgusting that it makes you shudder.
