But actually if anyone has any sort of short story, novel, whatever that is on that theme of a utopia that is actually a dystopia … like brave new world, 1984, the gift, enders game, handmaid’s tale, . The illusion of a perfectly functioning society and exploring the flaws through someone who sees differently, in some way… I’d love to hear it! If it is even marginally related to that, if it provokes thought or whatever please send me a DM (idc if you stumble on this months/years from now this is something I welcome always)
It’s a dystopia
It will be perfect for some, those sheeple

The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula K. Le Guin fits that profile.
