7.2: Ariel & Christina Discuss: Why Must Utopia Be Cruel?

In this episode, Ariel and Christina try to get to the bottom of why our fictional visions of utopia are so negative. They often involve mindless acquiescence to an authoritarian nanny state, the oppression and labor of an underclass, or both. It’s as if we can’t imagine a situation in which we all voluntarily treat each other (reasonably) decently and life can be good for everyone. We discuss the literary origins of utopia, how it has evolved (or not) as a concept, and Ariel gives a few examples of sci-fi futures that are about as close to her style of solarpunk utopia as can be. Ultimately, the topic of utopia raises more questions than answers.

MORE was the biggest hit of '63
This is a tune that jogs my memory
MORE than the corny music
that I play
It's just a theme I wrote
for Mondo Cane
Ti Guarderò Nel Cuore
Can't wait to translate
These royalty checks will be
keeping me laughing
all the way to the bank
Longer than always
is extremely long
But far beyond forever
you're gonna sing this song
I know I've never hit before
& my best advice to you is
Don't lose your head like
