Imagine a world where Christianity didn’t exist. The dark ages would never happen and technology would be propelled forward by 500 years. Or imagine a universe where Churchill’s Operation Unthinkable happened, drawing out world war two by twenty years and tripling the casualties. The theory of the multiverse states that the universe has infinite possibilities, one where let’s say humanity developed from corn, or one where Hitler cured cancer. You don’t think about these, but they’re a possibility that exists elsewhere.
In my perfect Utopia, I set up a totalitarian state. All citizens would have scientific focus toward interdimensional travel, and that’s the only jobs there would be. I, the government, would be in charge of feeding the people

Our flag is what looks like a fidget spinner, but has the letter “L” in the center.
You might think, “Logan your idea is insane, this isn’t a utopia, this is a dystopia”. That’s where you’re wrong. All of my citizens would have wrist implants that detect if crime is committed. All the punishments possible for crimes are death. These wrist implants function as executioner as well. The implant injects cyanide into the bloodstream, killing the person within seconds. No crime is possible because everyone would be taught the toleration is zero. This would also make any assassination attempts impossible, as the bearer of arms would die before pulling the trigger.
“I know this is dark, but why don’t they just cut off their arms?”. The backup system for the removal of one’s arm is the highest form of treason against the government. A tracker implemented into their neck would be activated. From there, the offender would be grabbed and tortured until the man perishes. If they were valuable to our cause, we would give them rights and extra food rations with a replacement kill switch, but they would also be brainwashed to my
Have you ever felt stuck? Wherever you are, it’s the absolute last place you want to be. In the book Into the Wild, Chris McCandless feels stuck just like the average everyday person may feel. Chris finds his escape plan to the situation and feels he will free himself by going off to the wild. I agree with the author that Chris McCandless wasn’t a crazy person, a sociopath, or an outcast because he got along with many people very well, but he did seem somewhat incompetent, even though he survived for quite some time.
Undoubtedly, the thought of living in, or forming a utopian society has flashed through nearly every person’s mind. A few people have even tried to make this ideal dream society a reality. Unfortunately, within the pursuit of these societies the leaders become corrupt and begin to become paranoid with the fear of rebellion. Hundreds of people were murdered during the reigns of Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin in what they considered measures to maintain peace and stability within their respective “perfect” society. One must also consider the hardships that the citizens were forced to endure while living under these oppressive governments.
Different societies have risen and fallen in the continual search for the “perfect” society. The definition of this utopia is in constant flux due to changing times and cultural values. Many works of literature have been written describing a utopian society and the steps needed to achieve it. However, there are those with a more cynical or more realistic view of society that comment on current and future trends. These individuals look at the problems in society and show how to solve them with the use of control and power. Such a society is considered undesirable and has become known as dystopian society.
After high school, there are many different opportunities that open up for everyone. Some people have the chance to go to a prestigious college right after they are done with their high school career. Others might just want a break from school and possibly take a year off. There are no right or wrong answers to what someone does after they finish high school. It all depends on the person's situation or what they feel is best for them. However, there may be some more benefits to taking a year off than going straight to college.
One could look at the world we live in now as a dystopian society but it is being disguised in a utopian society. The government t...
“Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast over nature”. From the beginning of time man and nature has been in conflict with one another because, as a whole, there is no cooperating. Each one tirelessly wants its way. The Man is fighting for dominance and nature w never yielding its authority. In American Literature, many authors illustrate this theme in their writing. Specifically the writers Jack London in The Law Of Life, Stephen Crane The Open Boat and Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Fin. Each explores the relationship between humans and nature but with slightly different methods. Mark Twain uses nature in a realistic way, Jack London in a naturalistic way and Stephen Crane constitutes a combination of both.
Every day, more and more attempts of banning books and taking away the rights of our First Amendment get violated. The challenging of a book is the attempt to remove or restrict materials, and the banning is the removal of these materials. I believe that books should not be banned for these reasons.
Ever since humans have conquered or established a society, their imperative duty is to try to create a utopian environment. All you can think about in its perfect sense, no mistakes, just everything impeccable. Unfortunately, one can only dream. In which as we are humans, we make mistakes and therefore defeats the meaning of a utopia, and converts into a dystopia. The absolute contrary to what we desire. It all starts with one person sharing their perfect ideas, and illuminating a light to a darkness that every other person has. That light creates hope and the people follow that person in which then over time, gets consumed by some emotion or purpose and thinks of themselves and puts everybody else at ruins, creating a world in which those people wish they never pursued those ideas.
Looking into the presidential election of 2000 between Democratic candidate Al Gore, and Republican candidate George W. Bush, it is viewed as one of the most major federalist conflicts in electoral history. Unprecedented is a story; not about Democrats or Republicans, it is more so about the conflicting relationships between the states and federal government, the voting process, our court systems, election standards, and protection and policy rights of our civil rights as Americans. The first thing that is noticed in Unprecedented is the voting process. Somewhere along the lines, people have stated that the voting process was very wrong in the state of Florida. The votes were not properly tallied up, and the laws behind a presidential recount are not lawfully justified.
In May of 2006, Gallup Poll found that sixty-nine percent of Americans answered yes to the question "When a person has a disease that cannot be cured, do you think doctors should be allowed by law to end the patient's life by some painless means if the patient and his family request it?”. Assisted suicide is suicide committed by someone with assistance from another, usually a physician. Supporters of the Death With Dignity law believe that anyone should be able to take the lethal pill if he or she has a terminal illness and only has six months or less to live. This is legal in the three states of Oregon, Washington, and Montana. Assisted suicide should be legal in California.
This utopia, though, would not promote any of America’s capitalistic views and remove so much of nature’s flaws that citizens would become practically inhuman. In “Brave New World,” Aldous Huxley shows how society’s current focus on advancing science and technology could create a seemingly perfect world. Although this sounds wonderful in theory, such things can only be possible through the loss of past ideologies and unethical means of creating a safe and happy environment.
What makes a good person good? According to WikiHow, "We should learn to define our own morals ourselves. One of the simplest ways to do so is to love others, and treat them as you would like to be treated. Try to think of others before yourself. Even doing small things daily will greatly enrich and improve your life, and the lives of others around you." This quote shows us what we need to do in order to be what society thinks as, “good". In order to be a good person, you have to do good and moral things in your society consistently. However people might think that by doing one good thing once in a while will automatically make you a “good person”, but in reality it doesn’t.
In the nineteenth century, man believed in the perfectibility of mankind and in the real possibility of an ultimate utopia, a time when man could all live together in peace. However, the events of the twentieth century have weakened that belief. Both cold and hot wars have followed each other in succession. Revolutions and civil wars have taken place and totalitarianism has become a fact that can hardly be ignored. Therefore, the modern age has become a time in which more anti-utopias have been envisioned than ever before.
The “Not so” Dark Ages Most teachers would tell you that the Dark Ages were only a time of, sickness, war, and famine; but, the Dark Ages weren’t all that terrible. Research has shown that during these “dark” times people learned to adapt and prosper. To some extent we agree with is that there was famine, war and sickness. Yes, there were reasons why the Dark Ages were dark; however, light came from the darkness. From 476 to 1000 Europe had become a poverty-stricken farming community (Roehm) Families had lacked food
