IMO it's good at its roots but can be easily coopted, it's like cottagecore in that sense.
Cottagecore was a lesbian aesthetic about escaping heteronormative society and going off grid. It got turned into a tradwife aesthetic about neo lebensraum. Solarpunk is similar, but the way it gets coopted is via green capitalism washing away the revolutionary parts of solarpunk and replacing them with consumerism of the eco friendly variety.
Wait the lesbians did cottagecore first? Thats cool and makes me feel better about it. There's a minecraft youtuber I like called GeminiTay who's wlw and before she came out she was doing Cottagecore builds in Minecraft and people found it unsuprising when she came out as bi because of this lol.
