Late soviet intelligentsia: "STUPID evil sovok building tiny 33 m2 apartments! They are too tiny! Unlivable! Not like Blessed America, where everybody lives in spacious, comfortable suburban houses!"
Modern day: "Actually 33 m is too much, 15 would be just fine. Even 3 square meters could be alright!"
In USSR there was an actual housing shortage esp after ww2
In the US there are plenty of homes but no one can afford it because market rationing ensures only rich can afford the same.
Difference between the two...
One had huge swaths of the nation destroyed by war.
The other has huge swaths of the nation owned by landlords.
Even 3 square meters could be alright
Take the glorious Hong Kong for example! The only place in China that was blessed by Western Democracy ™
How could we possibly make housing more affordable??
Oh well, let's build another 2 block parking garage.
Liberals have no trouble understanding supply and demand up until it comes to housing lol
Bring back tenement buildings!!!! We need them!!!! I love capitalist “efficiency”!!!
Natural sunlight is the most important thing man, i'd trade half my 180sqft apartment for more windows. My apartment has one window, with an AC unit in it, it's less than 2 foot tall after that. And then there's a fence right against it, sucks ass.
