What the fuck is that dome? This is the guy (Speer) wehraboos tell me was the best architect who ever lived? He can't even do neoclassicism properly lmao. The rest of the city looks like shit too.

Also mussolini tried some weird combo of stripped classicism and modernism and it looks real dumb. Like pick one or the other dude. Oh wait, Il Duce's too busy hanging off a meathook to listen to me.

    This is the worst shit. They tore down existing buildings and clear-cut a grove to build that eyesore. There are thousands like it everywhere too.

          :stonks-down: Line go down if put effort into building. Line go up if zero effort put into building.

          Public housing? Keep those dirty poors away from me. What should we build for the dirty poors as far away from us as possible? Dull husks of poorly built poorly maintained apartments carelessly thrown around and a few trees as consolation.

        It's called "cheapest materials we can get" and it's a staple of gentrification because all of these places are built to last like 10 years and usually replace buildings that were at some point or another public/rent controlled housing.

        Brusselization might be a relevant term
