Hey there,
I have a few idea's of this controversial topic, such as:
-Utopia can exist without liberty and freedom.
-Impossible.
-Brainwash to all think alike, even then minds may wonder.
-Questioning of Existence.
-Lack of knowledge.
-Ignorance is bliss? It isn't even bliss because they don't even know.
-Control + Power aspect. In the end, power corrupts.
I am trying to form a thesis statement for an english essay; comparing Brave New World and The Handmaid's Tale.
If anyone has read these books, even if you haven't, I would love to hear your input!

We can do a lot better than we ARE doing or ever HAVE done. A lot of what's in the way, that we have to get past, are things like ignorance, fear, and extreme selfishness (some amount of selfishness is fine - it all depends on how and how much). The way people were at Woodstock is a taste of what Utopia might look like. Of course, love has to be at the center of it and we must develop better understanding of what love is and how important it is.

I suggest you read, Utopia by Thomas More
he is the 1 who coined the term for what you know it as
Utopia - It is a greek word, literally translated means 'no place'
