- bilbo0s 5y agoNeither. To an alien they would look the same. We can't differentiate an anthill in Boston Mass. from an anthill in Gerona Cuba. They look the same to us. I only pointed that out to show how little space there is between what we call "dystopia" in Asia, and what we call the legal order our own societies. I doubt a completely uninformed but intelligent 3rd party could sus out the systemic differences between the two.
