In a solarpunk society, how would transgression look like? Obviously not the lame edgy kind like throwing a plastic wrap on the ground but the artistic, aesthetic, sexualized forms of transgression that challenge the status quo. Does it even make sense to pose such a question in an utopic setting? (especially one naively devoid of social tension like solarpunk)

    In my opinion it makes sense to pose the question, even tho there has to be traced a categorization line.

    In a solarpunk utopia, there probably wouldn’t be macro transgression as we can see in the society right now, unless we put ‘‘terrorist’’ groups under the transgression label.

    But there would sure be in micro settings: what we think about an edgy teen today can exist even in the ‘‘perfect society’’. The son of a farmer posting online videos of him wasting food, someone kicking animals, little bullies gang as forms of transgression… Also even just sticking out in themed events by going against the theme.

    I have to note tho that in a perfect setting I think the majority of people should channel these kind of emotions where it’s fine to do so: into competitive sports.
