Yeah but some people find them boring to look at so we have to keep building prisons instead.
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.
Looks more like the DPRK style, but Singapore also has some really nice social housing though not on the scale of China, Vietnam or North Korea
I mean they both solve the problem; it's just one is a Western solution and the other is humanity's solution.
They absolutely don't both solve the problem, plenty of homeless people in the capitalist world compared to the 0 people in former USSR
Now show a prison under socialism. It's easy to find. Just find a person who speaks out against the government, and follow them around
Unlike the US where they only imprison more people than anywhere else on earth
In north korea you will go to prison for praising the south... oh wait, Its the other way around
Gee it sure is fun being a communist in Poland! Where it sure is 100% legal to be one! Wow! So much freedom to speak against my government!
It always cracks me up that you have like every pronoun. Like a fae asking someone for their pronouns just to steal them XD

Yea, the faeries can be quite... mischievous. I talked with one of them once, fae gave me the fae/faer.
Everyone is afraid to admit that free necessities for all is the way.
The abusers and exploiters need that fear of destitution to drive you towards them and their unsafe unjust working conditions.
The greatest freedom in life is the ability to say no.
It's baffling how often we overlook the importance of negative freedoms, such as freedom from poverty and the fear of illness or a lack of financial security in old age. These are tangible, real-world freedoms that directly impact our quality of life. Meanwhile, we're constantly told that the ability to express ourselves is the ultimate form of liberty. It's time to reevaluate our priorities and recognize the true value of actual tangible freedoms.
What sort of a sick person would praise this https://asiatimes.com/2019/12/75-of-young-want-to-escape-south-korean-hell/
