You mean dystopian. If it were a utopia everyone would be happy to welcome the new world order.

No, I mean utopia. For them. A dystopia is what we will all experience, when the utopia they are pitching fails to materialize. I’m using the traditional, correct definition of the term, where a dystopia is a utopia that failed to achieve a paradise for the people and instead becomes hell
