Excerpt: "THE SIMULACRUM OF UTOPIAN DECAY" (A.Glass 2020)




"...in this harboring and familiarity of Utopian idealism, in its perpetuation, we see a decay, from a dramatic rise within the 21st Century of a middle class who solely intertwined the idealist notion of
an equilibrium of financial stability, that one could attain a collective mentality within their
desire for wealth. It does hold a merit to socialist aspects, but only in its sentimentalism
and most often the enacted semantics, when growth of asset values, from an
acknowledged inflation of prices has taken precedence. Which interestingly enough has
been muted by aspects of economic markets, not by design, but by a repetitive process of
dividing and combining the consumer while at the same insuring the whole global
economy. This has been achieved without any conspiracy reasoning. Rather as an
evolving process, with the removal of cash from a interconnected world replaced by digital
transactions, which in turn is heavily underwritten by governments and Central Banks that
may, for a moment in time, appear to have smoothed out issues like hyperinflation or
deflation and other economic turmoil, but it has not removed the uncertainty and more
importantly the fragility hat exists within this globalist and interconnected world. That as
mentioned, is a combination of two significant time periods within the 20th century, the first
beginning in 18th Century France, when a template was created for what could be
deemed as a workable Utopia, this was known as the French Utopians..."
