I don't know which is the bigger shit take, but this galaxy brained youtuber devotes over 3 minutes of a retro gaming video to slam housing projects as terrible. She laments that some of these terrible buildings are still in use, with footage of her touring what look like well mentioned social housing units to me. Then she cuts to still images of egregious dilapidated examples that obviously weren't part of the tour.

"Thankfully across the UK though, most brutalist buildings have been demolished."

Someone might want to tell her about Grenfell?

    Yep, they were competing against the jet black angles of the Sega Genesis and their attitude-ladened spokes-hog, Sonic

    It's a goddamn wonder the NES was able to take off like it did in the Post-Atari hellscape that was 1985 and Nintendo wasn't in the mood to fuck things up in 1991
