Solarpunk for me has always been, at its roots, an anarchist ideology that espouses the tenants of mutual aid and bottom-up, horizontal community structures to build a self-sufficient, sustainable society. That's the "punk" part of solarpunk.
That’s the beauty of prepping solidarily: people understand it right away (especially in the context of climate crisis and as a form of civil disaster relief or protection) but are not scared by „dirty words“ like anarchist or communist. They’ll learn it eventually.
Build it, let them experience the results of praxis first hand, give them a chance to be a part of it to get a see internal politics in action, then it becomes hard for them to deny the validity of the ideology behind it after they put the dots together.
