Yeah I guess there’s two different categories of sci-fi in this regard. Personally, I think stuff that’s as far ahead in the future as Star Trek is pretty close to fantasy. But then there’s also the Philip K. Dick style near future dystopian sci-fi that serves more as a warning about the future we’re headed to (or instruction manual if you’re a techbro CEO).
Fantasy is probably the same actually. I usually think happy thoughts if I think about fantasy as a genre but then there’s also stuff like Game of Thrones.
