"Of Course Trump Hates Brutalism", says this article going after Trump for rightfully pointing out the J. Edgar Hoover Building is a brutalist monstrosity.

I wish I could think of some zingers here but I'm just sitting here, sort of frustrated. If Trump came out against smallpox these people would start writing about the fascist roots of vaccination.

The FBI building Trump was knocking had to have netting put up so chunks of concrete wouldn't fall off and kill passersby but Trump knocked it, so it must be good somehow.

The QAnon shit going mainstream just makes the media look more unhinged for actually giving it the time of day. Kind of like when they declared Pepe to be a symbol of White supremacy. The downside is we'll get a lot more LARPing from people who are just now finding out about it.

Obama couldn't be on the ticket, he's not eligible. I know I'm in the minority, but I still think Biden would be cool.

Meh. Biden lost me when he unironically told a room full of black people that Mitt Romney, one of the most moderate Republicans to ever get the nomination, was going to put them all back in chains.

The far right appears to be leading a broader backlash against architecture self-evidently built with 20th-century technology. Such structures, in addition to their perceived deviance from the “Western traditions” venerated by American fascists, represent the tastes and lifestyles of America’s treacherous urban elite.

It's far right and reactionary to think concrete abortions are ugly.

:stress:

Compare that effect to one of the ahistoric explanations for Brutalism’s appeal. “My theory about why we love concrete architecture now is simple: It has body,” Alexandra Lange writes of the Museum of Modern Art’s new show, “Toward a Concrete Utopia,” on the monuments of postwar Yugoslavia...

...the FBI headquarters is refreshingly forthright. In a world wrapped in glass that masks where weight really falls, a big chunk of concrete sometimes just feels honest.

Glass is overused but aspiring to eastern-bloc style apartments is very :islamic:

Here I thought regulation-as-slavery metaphors were just a libertarian thing, but holy shit you're right. He even affects a blaccent. :cryblood:

He can still become vice president, just not regular president iirc. It would definitely be unprecedented tho.

If he is willing to set off a shit ton of legal challenges he could be vice president. In the event of Biden dying or resigning he could serve a max of 2 more years as president. You can only run for 2 terms but you can serve a max of 10 years.

Then whoever his appointed Vice President would serve the balence of Bidens term. IT COULD STILL BE HER TURN!

And then you would have civil war.

Fuck brutalism and bring on a neo art deco masterwork.

I don't know if anyone has posted this copypasta here yet, but it seems to be the Democrat's 2018 strategy.
Dear Sub-Human Filth,

I'm appealing to all of you stupid idiots to vote Democrat in 2018. That is if you have the basic education enough to read a ballot, anyway. I understand the majority of you racist rednecks can't even read this post, though. But those who can, please pass my message on to the rest of your inbred family.

We Democrats are morally, culturally and intellectually superior to you in every way. I will qualify myself by noting that I have a Liberal Arts degree from a college, which you obviously have never been to, if you even know what one is. I also have a black friend. I have been told by several professors that everything you hold dear is terrible. Therefore you, personally, are also terrible.

I don't know you, but I know that you're racist. I also know that you hate gay people and still get scared during lightning storms.

The religion which you hold closely, greatly believe in, and which brings you comfort--you are wrong because I'm smarter than you and I'm telling you so. It is one of the many reasons why you are stupid and I'm better than you.

You see, us Democrats want a system which helps everyone in the world. Our system is designed around love and kindness to everyone. If you don't agree, I hate you.

It's not too late to change. If you knew your history, which of course you don't, you'll remember a time in America when Indians were dragged away from their homes and forced to assimilate into white society. Well, we want to change that kind of behaviour (sorry for my spelling, as I'm not from your country) by making sure you go to college and have a small apartment in a big, busy coastal city, where you belong. That will help you rid yourselves of your backward, incorrect culture and way of thinking. We'll do everything we can to make sure you agree with us and say all the right things and not be brainwashed against thinking the same way we do.

All of you stupid, backward, redneck, racist, homophobic, uneducated yokels need to realize we're trying to build a classless society where we all get to live in harmony with each other, where we're all equal. If you only understood that you wouldn't be so much worse of a person than I am.

So please vote Democrat. Help me help you, you worthless motherfuckers.

Sincerely, Democrats

All it needs is a solicitation for campaign donations and you just described my last three encounters with the DNC.

It's like the entire party apparatus decided that analogues of Bob Chipman were just what Democrats needed to get to the polls in record numbers. Turns out they were, only they did so for Trump. Oops.
 
I like brutalism.

But art deco is superior. I think I mainly just hate modern cookie-cutter architecture, and like anything that isn't that.

He's not alone, there's a reason there aren't any NEW buildings like it. And in climates like DC where you get wet weather and constant freeze/thaw cycles, concrete edifices don't fare well long-term without staining or starting to drop chunks of themselves after a few decades from the underlying rebar starting to swell/corrode.

But "TRUMP'S THOUGHTS ABOUT BRUTALISM" is still a headline guaranteed to get clicks from the ignorant who assume he's sanctioning police brutality.
