    Just like other anarchist and lifestyle dealists, they all need to read Engels - Socialism: Utopian and Scientific. There is no small-scale, isolated, DIY-route to socialism, it’s been tried before and they all fail.

      Or if they really want to criticize communists, the backyard pig iron forges made during the cultural revolution.

      Don’t place in China and the DPRK take influence from solarpunk? I agree that there is no small-scale isolated path to socialism, but I think it’s a wonderful post-revolution concept.

        I’ve never heard of them taking influence from it, so I’d need to see a source on that. Anyways food production in those countries is as industrialized and centralized as any other country.

        Solarpunk proposes small-scale gardening as a solution to food and energy production, and that is wasteful and Utopian. Entirely different from someone just tending a garden for fun.

          I meant viewing solarpunk more as an aspect of socialism for fun or just in case of supply chain issues, people can feed themselves.

          I don’t have anything on hand, just pictures of hydroponics in China and DPRK
