How to recognize a dystopia – Alex Gendler

The genre of dystopia – the ‘not good place’– has captured the imaginations of artists and audiences alike for centuries. But why do we bother with all this pessimism? Alex Gendler explains how dystopias act as cautionary tales – not about some particular government or technology, but the very idea that humanity can be molded into an ideal shape.

Wow, so many great movies referenced.
School is a dystopia.
A true utopia is a free market capitalist society. Even the poor in rich Western countries have such high standards of living, that such could not be even imagined by the rich of the past.
with or without our help, dystopia is coming.
Can you add Dutch subtitles? I have it all translated, but can’t find a way to add it to the video.. I would really want to use this in my class!!!
OK we can here that but are we living in a dystopia?
we keep on writing things about how “so-and-so current event” will ruin the world, and we put it into fiction. Years later, we have 1) a reminder NOT TO DO IT AGAIN and 2) something that we now know will not end the world.
Make the utopia classless and share everything

Losing my mind over how good the animation was. Dayum.
love how you ocasionally put Mr. Robot in the middle of the images.
Someone’s dystopia, is another’s nirvana.
The way people use utopia is weird… You want to create a utopia? Well, if utopia was possible, there would literally only be one. There are not different ways utopia can look or be achieved. If it was possible at all, there would literally be one way to do it.
theres a really good movie called laputa castle in the sky, if you havent seen it, i demand you to watch it it. its a 10/10 movie.
Nope Imposible.
