The human race make mistakes all the time, including when it comes to organizing a perfect society. The Fruitlands, a utopian community that lasted six months, had people who were peace loving and forbade meat. This would cause problems later on. According to the article, “The strict diet of grains and fruits left many in the group malnourished and sick” (4 Utopian Communities that didn’t pan out, pg. 91). This part of the article shows that this “utopia” fell due to the fact that the people there were not getting the key nutrients they need to survive (protein and calcium for instance). This is important in order to understand that we want to achieve certain goals (trying to save animals by eating only vegetables, grains, fruit and being forbidden to use any animal products for example). Unfortunately, not every idea of what we want a utopia to be is possible to achieve, and we do not realize that.Therefore, utopian societies cannot exist if we frequently cause their collapse. However, mankind has reasons for trying to achieve this imaginary
