we need to bring back utopian fiction because most people in 2025 genuinely can’t imagine what a better world would look like
also every piece of dystopian fiction needs to present a proactive way forward or all it’s doing is feeding the apathetic doomerist zeitgeist
I feel like modern mainstream art is terrified of having anything resembling unironic optimism or positivity and that needs to change
@kasdeya definitely especially with many people becoming anti-tech since they can't imagine the way Tech can be used differently than now
@kasdeya @OctaviaConAmore Art and so much more. It’s like how almost all SciFi is dystopian:(
Fatalism becomes self fulfilling. I couldn’t agree more with you! We need the positivity.
