    I’ve not been aware of ecofascist cooping the movement. But I imagine the vegan mods would sus that out quickly 😜

    I suppose my point is that a movement doesn’t have to know everything about itself to be effective and while anecdotal; I’ve learned a lot about communism/socialism and mutual aid from solarpunk spaces.

      Not saying the Solarpunk community on Lemmy definitely has it, but it is a problem with the “movement” itself overall, like all aesthetic-movements do.

      That’s a good thing! I would still try to learn and read Theory outside of a solarpunk context though.
