Dystopia or Utopia

Create a society that views itself as a utopia, but from an outsider’s perspective, it is clearly a dystopia.

This prompt is about the subjective nature of utopian and dystopian societies. Explore the themes of power, control, and cognitive dissonance as citizens live in blissful ignorance of the oppressive conditions. How can a society be so divided in its perception? Are there mechanisms in place to maintain this illusion?
