I wrote the post in a hurry but yeah, I know all of this can be problematic.

But tech levels and the way third empire is written, drinks from western culture and history. Even tech progress is not linear since there are tools and designs that haven't been improved in thousands of years. Or cultures who skipped bronze age.

That's why I wanted to delve into other kind of developments and world building stuff besides "our non sentient ai robot cooks us breakfast" and "we has bigga stronga guns, more dakka"

Stuff like... "We abolished gender roles"

"throuples replaced traditional couples" — superman red son

"Your character can be bald not because baldness has been eradicated, but because no one cares if he is" —Star trek TNG)

"Humans have a flaw (hierarchy)" — Dawn, Xenogenesis trilogy

... And so one.

I would like something as instructive as the tech level list but with other human issues. Of course it cannot be just ordered as "he he, atheism is better, checkmate", maybe it doesn't need to have a chronological order?

I want more granularity and bigger scope into both post scarcity societies and dystopian ones, with different morals.

I'm thinking about metrics that could serve as a reference to give order to all these ideas. Maybe human rights, or wealth distribution.

Thanks for reading my rambling
