Could it be they meant a dystopia as right-wing might view or describe it?

As in "I'm right-wing; this is my idea of what a dystopia would be; SF seems like that."

Rather than "this dystopia is the result of right-wing policies." which clearly doesn't fit the facts, eh?

what is 'fact' and what is anecdote are unclear here, I've observed none of this personally, until then it is me suspending disbelief and relying on the words given to me for the interpretations and observations of those that I assume have more familiarity than me. I have no idea if it 'could be' that they meant X. I'm asking to know, not because I have an agenda.

No, I think the comment was meant to mean "this is not left-wing, this is late-stage capitalism, the problem is that we have too many right wingers in SF that are cosplaying progressivism"
