        okay im reading them again, you said that workers are simply not a prominent theme in solar-punk after calling four solar-punk images credible examples of labourers being prominent in solar-punk art, yes?

          That’s correct, the bulk of solar-punk themed art is not focused on the workers. What you did is cherry picking a handful of images that don’t paint a representative picture of the common themes in solar-punk art.

            so you don’t consider it cherry picking when you post some of the soviet sci-fi art that isn’t landscape art, but it is cherry picking when i do it in response?

              No, I don’t consider it cherry picking because that theme is prevalent in Soviet art, including sci-fi themed art. It’s very clearly not prevalent in solar-punk art. I love how you’re just not capable of admitting this basic fact.

                the basic fact you posted two examples of soviet sci-fi with prominent labourers and i posted four credible examples of the much younger solar-punk art movement with prominent labourers?

                  if you believe that the examples are equally representative of each respective style then I don’t really know what else to tell you here

                    so considering the soviet sci-fi art movement when the USSR dissolved was about six times older than solar-punk as an art movement is now, proportionally you would need to post roughly twenty two more examples of labourer-focused soviet sci-fi art to meet the same level of representation of the four credible examples of labourer-focused solar-punk art
