- krapp 3y agoNot really. Solarpunk is utopian, steampunk isn't angsty. If anything it just describes aesthetics related to technology and energy in a sci-fi setting, that may or may not have political undertones.
- mcv 3y agoI don't know if it's utopian, but it's hopeful. It's the way up after the corporations (or some other disaster) tore everything down.
