it is a hopeful vision of the future in the same way soviet sci-fi is, which as far as ive experienced doesn't usually flesh out the details of how exactly the soviet state withers away

soviet sci-fi usually acted as more of an inspiration for those who were already educated by a communist state, solar-punk acts as a inspiration for the much more niche community of eco-socialists in a similar way, in that regard they are only superficial as much as imaginary hopeful socialist futures in general are superficial

As I mentioned in the other reply, I agree with your take in a context of a broader eco-socialist movement.
