Space colonization being the liberal/fascist way to 'resolve' social conflict isn't new. I think the 70s Scifi novel by O'Neil prescribe to this idea. Also the original 079 Gundam anime was a diatribe against this particular aspect of the novel in form of a Saturday morning cartoon by Tomino, i.e. the poor and undesirables are sent to space to extract resources, space independence movements co-opted by right-wing elements in a world absent of Marxism, the metaphor(space magic bullshit) for working class consistence gets used as a weapon by the liberal hegemon in Earth and right-wing independence movements etc etc.
