[@sabinablue3294]

I have an exam, and the videos on this channel saved me! Thanks

[@eugeeltano]

This guy is so passionate! Amazing. Ill try to read the book it seems so interesting

[@cbgoob3246]

its not :(

[@Charlyzar]

It's amazing and really interesting. I read it twice now, the first time as a child and the second time very recently. it's so interesting when considering the time period it was written in

[@msinvincible2000]

I wonder why Utopia became a word for an ideal world. With a few exceptions, Utopia seems a nightmare

[@PetervandenHeuvel81]

Someone's Utopia is a Dystopia for others. That's something Marxist/Communist/Socialist/Collectivist believers don't get, that's why personal liberty and universal rights are important.

[@Ali-zn6sg]

There’s a word he could have used: Eutopia, meaning “good place”. But the author chose Utopia, meaning “no place”. Makes ya think.

[@msinvincible2000]

@@PetervandenHeuvel81 I agree, as my family had the misfortune to suffer under the purest Communist regime the world has ever known. That's why Utopia frightened me so much

[@Charlyzar]

that was not communism tho

[@Skullnaught]

@@Charlyzar yes it was

[@반석위의러시아문화]

As far as I remember, Utopians can be engaged in any creative or academic activities if they want to or if they are acknowledged to have enough abilities. Thus their life seems not so boring to me.

“He wrote the history of King Richard III in 1557” No, Thomas More was executed by Henry VIII in 1535

[@ssssssssssssssssssssssssssszzz]

he in fact wrote it during 1513-1518

[@shakespearaamina9117]

Thank you! Brilliant presentation!

[@Alphonium]

Utopia does not mean the 'perfect place' it means the 'no place'. However, in Latin 'Eutopia' would mean the 'perfect place' (more accurately the 'good place')

[@ericschwarz5908]

It is a play on words for both of those terms. It is both a good place and no place, as in an ideal non-existent land that was satirically created to protest English cultural and societal norms of the time.

[@fabian8609]

How can gold not be valuable to them if they are able to pay for goods or services from outsiders with it??

[@riyadhul-hoque6851]

The outsiders value the gold. Utopians dont have to so they can use it without incurring any loss. I think...

[@midhun5551]

First thing that Utopia is a high functioning and productive country where they have surplus good rather than importing. When you have surplus, you export. When you exchange goods with other country, it creates a debt on the country which buys it from Utopia, and they give what Utopia wants according to the value of the goods they received; it can be some other goods which Utopia cannot produce or it can be a debt that Utopians can use later in many ways other than money transaction. So chances of money involving in transactions of goods and day to day life will be very less. Since Utopian philosophy, laws and upbringing discourages the population from having pleasure from wealth and possessions, valuable metals and stones become unprofitable for themselves, but they maybe building art or utensils with them. When everyone in the country gets equal share of food, cloth and power, act of becoming rich in possession of gold or money becomes absurd.

[@Agrumin]

@@riyadhul-hoque6851 but it has value now. Others want it and exchange goods for it. It's now valued.

[@riyadhul-hoque6851]

@@Agrumin no it doesn't have value because the utopians dont need.... because they dont need it they can give it to mercenaries etc

[@Agrumin]

@@riyadhul-hoque6851 it gets new value as they "give" it for something else to mercenaries.

[@thelonewanderer4084]

Great video :)

[@bestcollectiont.s5782]

I read the book and anyone who knows about Ethiopia would say its the History of Ethiopia

[@justsomeone9094]

A utopia is created by one’s ideals/opinions of a perfect paradise based on their likings Simply put, it’s a delusion

Lovely

[@stephenofmilford1216]

In Tudor times one definition of Utopia would be a world without Thomas More and Papist corruption. An educated but malign individual - one example, his vitriolic antipathy to a bible in English. If you want to sanctify someone from that time, then William Tyndale is a wholly more deserving martyr.

[@hektorjaniczek8912]
