A novel which is set in the future, where the government uses artificial sources such as mind manipulation, reproductive technology ect. ect. I haven't actually read the book, but the wiki is a good informative source. The reason I went on the wiki is because on Steam, Me, Duck and Rachet were having a discussion about whether it was a dystopia or utopia.
I thought it was a Dystopia, due to using artificial sources to govern the territory and disabling the right to free pursue, so I just thought of this as unnatural and how their freedoms which were given at birth; freedom itself was violated in order to establish what I saw as a dictatorship.
Rachet thought it was an Utopia for everyone was happy and the rights issue wasn't regarded as a major issue.
What do you think?

But your input would be better if it could accumulate a debate.

| As the most of us haven't read the book or the Wiki, this thread is gonna be 80% Jokes. However, with that being said. Real world Utopias are always Dystopias. |
