Utopias are silly for many reasons but the necessity of stasis has to be one of the most obvious ones. Which is why it’s weird that the assumption of permanent struggle — the very fuel of an adaptive future — is so damn easy to forget.

Any utopia defined statically solves an equation against an immediately obsolete time stamp. You have to solve it at the relational level. Utopia is defined by how it identifies and solves problems, not by having a solution for all problems currently privileged by the writer.
