I'm glad to see some exposure, but I can't help but feel the message is misfocused; lMO Solarpunk is about which actions to take not just saying "yeah me and all my homies hate XZY".
Its much easier to get people to agree on an action, like right to repair, see the benefit, and then draw their own ideological conclusion. Its much more welcoming and positive than than jumping straight to "my conclusion is good, you should hate XYZ with me"
I don’t think it is true that it is easier for people to agree on action compared to uniting against a common oppressor. Something cutting is often more attention grabbing. But it isn’t an either or. We should use both positive and negative messaging to grow the movement.
