The Russian Cosmists have so much to answer for.
My parents got super into the spinoff of For All Mankind that takes place in the Soviet Union, "Star City". The central conceit of that alternate history spate of shows is that Sergei Korolev didn't die and kept being as awesome as he was at running the Soviet space program. In the spinoff the writers actually knew a bit about what they were doing, and have him more or less directly quoting cosmists at other characters... I got to tell my parents that its people like him that are the reason their new laptop was expensive and that the oligarchs think they're going to live forever as feudal lords of the solar system and that our society as a whole has a tendency to falsely believe our destiny is endless expansion and perfection in space rather than Earth.
