a glimpse of what socialist housing looks like from Austria, and it's beautiful
was reminded of this just now going over Marx's brilliant Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts again (marxists.org), and came to the part where he describes the depravity of capitalism with the example of housing and landlords
this public housing program is a remnant of the mass working class socialist movement when it was at the height of its influence. More on that history here:

lol some deranged Nazi creep just replied with "it's bleak, ugly and soulless", which is hilarious because that meme response was originally about some Soviet bloc public housing, and now they've just extended it to any public housing flats at all
Nazis call the public housing ugly and soulless, and deranged liberals in the Notes are calling it Marxist authoritarianism while linking to a property manager website as a source. Scratch liberals and fascists bleed theory comes through yet again. Vote down this trash if you can
