@huggablysoft I used to like dystopian stories but over time I learned almost all dystopian stories are unrealistic because they always inflate an arguably unimportant social aspect of what really makes societies dysfunctional. The closest style of dystopian society I like seeing in storytelling is one with a religious mandate, where everyone believes in the same religion and belief in any other religion or no religion is a capital offense

@huggablysoft but imagine it for a minute. Most dystopian societies are exciting because they are either exaggerations or pale echoes of our societies today. A religiously intolerant state is not too far from the truth, though we don't have the pleasure of being told by our laws that we are religiously intolerant. It is a shame that when we read or watch a dystopian story, we have the advantage of looking from the outside in. Most characters in the story don't realize they live in a dystopian society, which is the point - if I walked up to the average American and asked if our society was dystopian, he'd probably think I'm weird or Liberal. Odds are he's Christian middle class, so he probably would have no idea how dysfunctional our country really is. Like how Logan couldn't see the issues with his society until he had to run
