Despite the comparison of Utopia as distinct from and morally better than widespread society, in truth Utopia is, at best, an extension.

The first reason that you can be confident that the giver is a Utopia is because of the family values in More’s Utopia. In More’s Utopia,

Utopia is a hard sell in the twenty-first century. Today we are people who know better, and what we know are the horrors of “actually existing” Utopias of the previous century: Nazi Germany, Stalin’s Soviet Union, Maoist China, and so on in depressing repetition.1 In each case there was a radical break with the present and a bold leap toward an imagined future; in every case the result was disastrous in terms of human cost.
