I’m not super against modern architecture, I like Corbusier’s Paris, I like some Brutalism, I like Rationalism and Stripped Classicism and Socialist Classicism (I know, I sound like Doctor Evil). But there’s no denying that the Jewish-dominated Bauhaus and Frankfurt School had an extreme negative impact on architecture that cannot be repaid based on a handful of nice synagogues. A lot of this stuff looks really silly and tasteless. Imagine if the ruins of Europe had been rebuilt by Speer instead of by the International Style glass-fetishists.
The bauhaus department store in what is now Wroclaw, Poland was designed and constructed when it was the German city of Breslau, capital of Silesia, prior to WWII.
Come on. You’re smarter than this. You know I’m Jewish and you’re obviously not going to kill me. Stop dumbing yourself down to appeal to people who can’t stand you.
Nah. I was unironically making fun of myself and my nature for hate in my darkest moments. Comes from attack on titan and I don't think the MC is someone to idealize but learn from. Great show with a lot of philosophical undertones

I remember going to Prague and seeing this synagogue. It is beautiful!
it's a gaudy piece of shit
Robert- Moorish revival is one of my favorite periods—I appreciate this reminder. Hope you’re well this week? Cheers, -Thalia
My favorite here is Louis Kahn.
Fun fact: Netanyahu majored in architecture at MIT.

“I'll kill them all.
Come on. You’re smarter than this. You know I’m Jewish and you’re obviously not going to kill me. Stop dumbing yourself down to appeal to people who can’t stand you.
I'm not trying to appeal to anyone, really. But no I'd never kill you
Attack on titan meme probably does better with attack on titan imagery
It's satire
Yay I feel safe!
You are a dangerous gal...
No idea what that has to do with me. I loved the architecture in the Jewish Quarter of Prague which I was happy to see Stark post.

Wow the Salk Institute looks like something straight out of Clockwork Orange. Brutal brutalism.
