    OOP’s bro might actually explode if he ever learns about the Khrushchovka, how concrete prefab buildings solved the housing crisis in 1960s Europe, and how similar mid-rise buildings could solve the suburban sprawl festering in current day North America.

      you can make tall buildings out of brick and poor people deserve nice homes too every time someone says hey living in one of those things is soul crushing and awful someone goes oh so you want people to be homeless no I want free housing for everyone and it to look good and not reaffirm the class and poverty of those who live in it

        Despite what some simple minds may think, residential buildings are not restricted to being either high density commie blocks or American cookie cutter suburban hellscapes. Medium-density townhouses are all over Europe, but the regressive bigots in America created zoning laws that made them illegal to build.
