Holy fuck. Spot on. The fucking hand wringing about "Soviet block style" housing.

I meet plenty of people in Poland that tell me these buildings are ugly. Every single time I have to quip them with comparisons on how homelessness must be so beautiful then. I don't know how these idiots exist honestly.

the most maddening thing is, they dont even look bad, when they werent run down they looked just fine no more interesting or boring than the average building block in an imperial core capitalist country. Where im from there were a few massive commie blocks in my neighborhood and no one, fucking no one ever complained about them looking plain, people didnt give a shit and it was a nice place cuz it had parks around and plenty of open spaces, overall it was a nice place, and lively, way better than suburbia.
