Speaking long and essays, I find https://www.notthesky.com/posts/essays/the-men-who-sold-the-moon/ very interesting.

It outlines how a lot of the American "Golden Age" sci-fi limits our imagination by focusing on scientism and capitalism.

It then criticizes early Solarpunk (as visualized by the Chobani ad), showcasing how a movement focused on aesthetic only can be easily hijacked by capitalism and used for greenwashing (as we were recently reminded by Figma's CEO).

We need more communal, dirty Solarpunk.
