    Also, are commie blocks really that much uglier or built worse than comparable social housing constructed in the west during the same period? Isn’t that just how you built cheap housing at the time?

      But they’re commie (it’s right in the name!) and that means they’re evil. They can only be shown as dilapidated, dark, and gloomy in every western flick since all of the USSR really was dark and dilapidated and gloomy everywhere except where the Animal Farm leaders lived which was gaudy, extravagant, and over the top opulent. It was always cloudy, never sunny and reality had a dark blue and grainy filter on at all times. Don’t you know anything?

        Their dark, gloomy and oppressive housing for everyone 😨

        Our bright, opportunistic, profitable homelessness for the unworthy 😊
