@freemo seeing an issue from both sides doesn't mean agreeing with either. I can understand why in the west there's a community of contrarian edgelords cheering for russia in the ru-ua war, doesn't mean it's not fucking stupid.

Meanwhile people creating comics like these take the religious approach "the other side is evil and don't even try to understand them or we'll accuse you of being on their side".

@moffintosh @icedquinn you go ahead and allocate enough budget to tear down and rebuild like more than half of densely populated buildings in a major city while at the same time dealing with the nightmare of what to do with their current residents for the time. It's the kind of debt hole that is too big to fill at the moment and at the same time consumes more resources over time just to keep working badly. Typical commie resource allocation stuff, they didn't bankrupt an entire empire because of great foresight.

@icedquinn @moffintosh yeah, and they incurred debt that made us unable to build more for further immediate housing needs. You can only make shit buildings for so long until the costs of maintaining them come back to bite you in the ass. We keep having problems with them, we can't just tear them down and build better ones in their place so they're a constant shitty money sink for subpar living space.

@icedquinn @moffintosh also they were insulated like shit and with the money Poland spent around 1995-2015 to insulate them against cold so that they don't waste insane amounts of energy for heating we could've built another series of actually well constructed buildings.

@icedquinn @moffintosh don't worry, we run into issues with those buildings being constructed like shit, looking like shit and giving everyone living around them depression much faster than that.
