    I think it’s also a symptom of Solarpunk not being explicitly anticapitalist, it’s an aesthetic and a goal that liberals can appreciate as they see climate change accelerating, but haven’t done the analysis necessary to agree that Capitalism is one of the largest underlying causes of climate change.

        We’ve had this discussion before. While technically correct, what you describe as what you want would best be described as Market Socialism, you just prefer to take on the mantle of Liberal for what I perceive as optic reasons.

        The majority of anticapitalism is Socialist in nature, though you’ll probably still find mercantilists or monarchists somewhere.
