Concrete jungle: why brutalist architecture is back in style
#4
Brutalist architecture? The perfect expression of cultural fascism or cultural Bolshevism. Whether in sports venues, houses of worship, or educational settings, it is the sort most likely to be destroyed as eyesores.

The only valid use I can see for brutalism in architecture is for prisons, which one legitimately wants to be scary.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
