Can an (overly) optimistic science fiction genre help inspire a new generation of Leftists?

    @sam_uk OK, but if the solarpunk is a genre of science fiction, where are the solarpunk novels?
    And any movement to be treated seriously should avoid taking communists on board.

      I see anarchist point of views in steampunk and cyberpunk. So I expect the same solarpunk. But haven’t read the first novel yet neither.

      If a novel appears with traditional leftist/communist approach it would be very cringe. A lot of steampunk stories are about evil oligarchs vs adventurous heroes, without the need of falling in commie fallacies.
