The Final Word on Utopia
What is a Utopia? Check out the Wiki entry for the origin of this worn out term:
The word comes from the Greek: οὐ ("not") and τόπος ("place"). The English homophone eutopia, derived from the Greek εὖ ("good" or "well") and τόπος ("place"), signifies a double meaning: "good place" and "no place".
The double meaning can be read as "Good place, no place". This is the lesson history teaches us, there is no good place. As much as we are sold down a river of hope, change, love and exctasy – it doesn't exist.
Here is another good installment of Corbettreport on this very topic.
