It’s hard to imagine a surer sign that one is dealing with an irrational economic system than the fact that the prospect of eliminating drudgery is considered to be a problem.

“Milletin değerleri”yle neden kavga etmeliyiz?

"Bugün “milletin değerleri” diye karşımıza çıkarılan şeylerin hepsi, rejimin kafasındaki ideal toplum-ideal vatandaş anlayışının ve bunları bir arada tutacağı varsayılan dinsel kuralların bir yansımasından ibarettir."

...

"Demek ki “milletin değerleri” denen şeyler, aslında “millet” denilen kolektif kimliği inşa edenlerin, yani rejimin makbul vatandaşlarını yaratmaya çalışanların bize “değer” diye dayattıkları şeylerdir ve dibine kadar da politiktirler."

How Indigenous Visionaries Are Reshaping Representation in Pop Culture

"For Thiele, Indigenous Futurism represents “Native people taking back their stories. It’s hard to imagine a world without these stories. In art and life there are unknowns, but once something is created it’s out in the world and in people’s brains, there’s no stopping it.”

As Bloch understands it, [...] utopia, which in one sense is always elsewhere, always escaping our actual horizons, is in another and no less important sense inscribed in the innermost core of our being.

How Star Trek shows that hedonism can work for everyone

Peter Frase sees Star Trek: The Next Generation as a good way to contrast the values we have today with a science fiction utopia.

He argues the economics of the Star Trek world allows people to pursue pleasure instead of wealth.

A History of Star Trek's Gender Non-Conformity

From Jadzia Dax to Adira and Gray, all the times Star Trek has challenged societal gender expectations and binaries

"Data's trial in “The Measure Of A Man” sounds very much like current trans and intersex-rights trials in which people are arguing to simply be allowed to exist, with all the dehumanizing language that comes with the so-called “debate.”
