Meta Utopia

I've also used the term "metatopia" instead somewhere previously.

The idea was like "one person's utopia is another person's dystopia" so, what if there were multiple different utopias to choose from? Fairly simplistic solution. Does it make any sense? Is it possible or practical at all? Is it safe?

Different? Utopias? Like what?
different in what way? laws? economic systems?

i guess to answer this, would kind of need to gather some examples of what different people think would be a nice utopia for them.

Examples with a grain of meta utopia
There are some things which already exist which seem to have some implied features of mesa-utopias.

These range from universally accepted mundane everyday stuff (like group membership), up through things that are much more mixed, out there, or concerning.


 * Various online communities and projects
 * Dashcon, tumblrcon
 * Various failed utopias and communes etc.
 * Venus project lol
 * Pruitt igloe?
 * Seasteading
 * Secularism, freedom of religion, separation of church and state, freedom of association and travel
 * Literal cults
 * Churches and old religions
 * The vatican
 * Calgary atheist/secular church
 * Activism things
 * Occupy wall street
 * The Black Panther Party?
 * Extinction rebellion?
 * Leftist infighting
 * Atheism plus
 * Some BLM stuff?
 * Seattle Liberation zone?
 * Our “good enough to run” world is not good enough [see “issues to care about”]
 * Education system is shit [grade school and universities]
 * Old folks homes are shit
 * Police system is shit
 * Our “democracies” hardly give us a voice and are often run by ignorant buffoons
 * The ”human-last” (and “help-last”) “user interfaces” of bureaucracies?
 * The fucking housing crisis, landlords


 * Permeate Calgary
 * Rainforest Calgary etc.?
 * That “constellation” or whatever method Mike said was the only idea we needed or whatever lol
 * Co-housing projects

 * Amish, hutterites
 * “Indian” reserves
 * people/groups creating their own currencies/economies
 * Even here in Calgary!  “Calgary bucks” or whatever...
 * Actual governments [they had to start somewhere]

here's some things that are hard to include these as "examples" because they seem pretty fake to me [or, what's it called? cargo cult? deepity?]:


 * "decentralized autonomous organizations"
 * "the metaverse"

Concerns and difficulties

 * sounds a lot like....segregation and stuff.
 * [well, you're kind of supposed to be able to live wherever you want. but seems likely some people are gonna be like "can't we have some kind of requirements for membership?", hmm]
 * [another difference with segregation: generally those situations involve one group being in power and the other group basically having no power?  but presumably in a meta utopia, each utopia is of equal status to the others?]
 * [whenever i think about this, i turn towards less and less territory. like, if deporting people from countries is bad, what about cities being full of multiple utopias side-by-side?  well that sounds a lot like segregation, what about less defined divisions? kind of leads to just "virtual" membership.]
 * one of those ...."utopias" is gonna be full of people who want to wipe out everyone else.
 * [this is kind of just a sharp way to say something that is already true in both international foreign relations, and internal tensions that lead to civil wars. but presumably there's either powers over top of or between each utopia that prevents such conquest, as usual, like we already have.]
