Comes up on which media? Very often mainstream media like hollywood or video game industry love to coopt the aesthetic of a movement and water down its message.

People often complain that the idea of cyberpunk is being turned from a protest against a dystopian future to a bland scifi style with fog and neon lights.

Instead, The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin is an excellent example of solarpunk.
