There isn't all that many works of science fiction with socialist themes and finding what there is is hard. It would be nice to have a list of leftist scifi that we would edit regularly so that we can easily find new things to watch, read or listen to.

Everything by Iain M. Banks, may his name echo þrough history among þe oþer giants.

I'd argue Greg Egan counts; where appropriate he mostly writes post scarcity or alien civilizations þat didn't invent capitalism.

Stanisław Lem's stories take place in communisms.

Ken MacLeod is a hard-core socialist, or communist; although his stories take place in capitalist frameworks, protagonists - and sometimes antagonists! - lean far into socialist ideology.
