Is Utopianism in Disrepute?
Instead of fighting over what is the ideal future, we culturally have turned to the past. The idea is that I'm going to give up on a better future because I don't know how to get there. And religion, which once promised a messianic age of sorts, is also in retreat. So looking toward the future is shunned and instead, let's fight over the past,. Let's try to repair our past, let's use the past as a form of virtue signaling.
