    I don't have anything against classicist architecture I just don't understand why the US has to have such a bland and beige version of it. Other countries have historicist government buildings that are not ugly or boring.

      like think the whole "make america great again " it comes from a nostalgia to old america like people are imagining a special olden time america where everything was good and so the things that represent america as a country are warped by this because AMERICA IS NUMBER ONE NO NEED FOR NEW THINGS right? that is the mindset, america is the best and that is why america will not fix their deeply flawed democractic system for a more modern one and if america is the best the only inspiration for american government building should only come from america as it has the best government and the best government buildings also rome workship but from the time when people did not know roman buildings were really colorful and time just took those off and thought the romans just liked bland ass constructions are kinda of my best guesses on why they are all this bland
