I'll give you that, if they were supporting reactionary ideals they would support us, but it was a one off comment so I'll cease.
why do you find it shitty
Yeah I don’t think anybody here would give a shit if our elites actually defended the interests of the nations
Prince Charles is known for being an advocate of classical arts and architecture, for instance
And a good friend of Sir Roger Scruton
(RIP <:PepeHands:613573627459403787>)
But he never made anything out of it
He could’ve easily used his influence to kickstart a revival of good architecture in the 80s once people were getting tired of modernism and voting conservative
But instead he just whined about concrete
Too late now

Well I guess he still could but it’s not like the people who live in London now would give a shit one way or the other
<:wakemeup:611737392310910996>
Doesn't mean they can't in the future, that's what has to be tried for, people caring again.
Russia has a fairly strong architecture revival movement among the elite
If you go on the <#672211110509674526> channel you can see I post some of their vanity palace renovation projects every once in a while
Even in urban centers
Same thing in Eastern Europe
And increasingly even Germany
Well that’s a government building
Those tend to be pretty based these days
even the regular apartments in the city have elements of russian revival
Even leftists realize 70s concrete shit is a bad look for government buildings
brutalism is probably the most disgusting thing humanity has ever created
Idk there’s some nasty shit out there
But yeah it’s definitely on that top 10 list
I’m always baffled by the yuropoors on this server who defend it
