This is similar to why I push so hard up against a lot of utopian thinking. As soon as we fix something with the language of utopia, ie, *this* is a utopia, we stop thinking about how it isn't a utopia for some people, those whose difference is illegible to this utopian thinking. 1/2

The slip from utopia to fascism is quick. I would even posit that fascism is always utopian because it is grounded on an ideal (for some) society. But whenever such an ideal is projected onto all people, it is always violent. ITW, utopia and dystopia are not binary to each other. 2/2
