A poll on Mastodon: what's the overlap between fans of Star Trek and fans of the sci fi genre of solarpunk?

I would also say that in general, Star Trek seems to steer slightly around discussing the actions needed to proactively achieve their society. It's an end point, and you can find some info here and there about how they got there, but it's really treated as the result of a magical tech breakthrough that resolved class conflict with the wave of a hand.

Anyway, solarpunk and Trek are definitely fellow travelers. But their tones aren't identical.
