I think the seed for it lives in the open/free/libre source dream. If we can make it easy enough to produce what we need with open source tools then we don't need global capitalism.
In many regards we're far from that dream but having a concretisation of what the end result could look like (and/or depictions of how to get there) in the shape of Solarpunk should help.
I agree. It would be wonderful to build a world where everyone is provided a sustainable baseline of existence and opportunity with open source and free culture stuff.
