I think the perception of such a dream depends on a series of factors. One of them is the ability of the person to deal with complexity. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW4LTqRJDW8&t=2s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW4LTqRJDW8&t=2s
A person on the third order of consciousness (Social) would tend to find the idea repulsing.
A person on the forth order of consciousness (and 5th) would tend to find the idea attractive.
Trouble is that we are not yet at 4th order at a global level. We are actually nowhere near that. Unfortunately, not even the leadership is there yet. Some are but not all.
The higher one goes on this scale of development the clearer the interconnectedness of everything is.
Kegan even argues that the reason we live longer might have something to do with needing to develop the higher levels of consciousness that are required to deal with the global challenges that we face. It is impossible to deal with global consequence by using the 3rd order of consciousness. The ability of people with this type of consciousness to deal with the complexity of the issue is simply inadequate.
