Okay, I find the way his moustache was black, whilst the rest of his hair was white to be intriguing.

His ideas seems pleasing at first sight, but when implemented, fail in real life

Been a while since I read them but Pythagoras and Tolstoy were better utopians I think. If you're reading about those kinds of things right now Hanji. @shastarSingh.

Pythagoras especially they murdered and edited all but out of history. Only giving him credit for triangles which is really the smallest thing he did.

I think well intentioned (as someone said earlier) is the truth. 

Like all attempts to create a more fair society, human nature has a tendency to corrupt it. Read Orwell's Animal Farm to see how. 

We've had a similar thing. Look at how SGPC/Akali Dal have become a casteist corrupt group now.  

 

One thing people forgot to factor in (or more likely weren't aware of then) was sociopathy. Once something starts looking promising, and gains momentum and resources, these guys naturally gravitate towards it and worm their way in to high positions. They don't have any idealistic/higher notions themselves, so they end up corrupting the whole organisation, getting like-minded or sycophantic people in other positions of power.
