The main assumption arising from utopianism is the pernicious notion is that ‘the end justifies the means’- or put more prosaically, ‘you can’t make an omlette without breaking eggs’ – real-world meaning: ‘you can’t make a utopia without breaking heads’. Current atrocities are excused by the justification that ‘it’ll be worth it in the end’ i.e. when the utopia has come to pass and everyone is happy.
