https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXkI1sTDoEgOnly one I've ever read is XKCD, and I'm not even sure if that qualifies as 'hard science'. I'll let you determine if it does or not.
Please forgive me, but I don't know much about popular culture. Sometimes I wonder if I really fit in here because of that. I do sometimes get upset and feel left out when Hopey calls people here 'pop-culture nerds', when I know I don't qualify by any stretch of the imagination.
(huggles) Collectivist societies aren't strictly sunshine and rainbows, I think... :/ I grew up in one for some time after the divorce, and it wasn't the prettiest of experiences.
Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science.It's a question of scale, practicality, human nature and implementation, of which everyone has different ideas on. (Also, you're not the only one who isn't a pop-culture nerd. I consider myself a history geek, and where an otaku would break out an anime reference I'm likely to bring up some historical battle or personality.)
As for webcomics, look up Schlock Mercenary. It's hard sci-fi, set in the far future, and very well-written. The artwork improves significantly over the years, too—compare the current strip with the first one.
Charlie Stross's cheerful, optimistic predictions for 2017, part one of three.I'm showing my mom the Ghost in the Shell tv show. So far she likes it.

More trivia than practical knowledge.

I can't keep up with the current conversation. Could someone please sum up what you're talking about? =/
