Right now, I am about a 1/4th the way into Season 3.
On the show, there is this "Utopian" group that is trying to create an ideal society.... Irrelevant of all the weird things that happens in this Utopia... there is something specifically that I have noticed.
While they are very "peaceful" and "idealistic"... when it comes to necessary death or punishment, they really show no mercy. They display all of these characteristics of a Utopian society, striving for an ideal way to live and operate. In their system, there is no police or ruling government. And yet, when action is necessary, they are direct and to the point. Once more, they almost seem cold about it.
I think I like their disposition in that regard. I took a personality test once, telling me what country I should live in. The test said that I should have been born in "New Mother Russia"... the description was this:
You are gruff and hostile, have little need for early possessions, and are a fearsome and intimidating person. You therefore are best suited as a Russian. You likely smoke cigarettes, and although you may hold socialist or communist tendencies, you are willing to give capitalism and democracy a fair shake. You are proud and usually loyal, and are willing to make a bargain, especially if it means expanding the reach of your control. You sometimes don't know when to stop or what is best for you, often because you don't care.
haha... it is a bit extreme. However, I do see that part of my personality. While I do value love, life, and peace... there is a side of me that finds action/death a necessary evil. Sometimes it is necessary to "lay down the law", so as to protect the rights of others.
Just a random observation.
