      despite all their issues, they are preferable to homelessness

      Yeah no shit. Literally everything has ups and downs. The USSR just got through a world war against a power that was trying to genocide and colonise their land. Entire cities were destroyed. Millions were made homeless. Commie blocks were a good thing and yet they’re shat on. Like what else were they meant to do?

          The OP is about how liberals react to public housing built in the USSR: with horror

          Meanwhile their own political/economic system does not even attempt to supply all those in need with housing, and leaves its citizens to rot in tent camps or with even less shelter, exposing clear double standards and hypocrisy

              doggirl-thumbsup Probably a good idea in the future to read both panels of a meme before jumping in uniformed

          I mean, either you have a state that actually spend the resources to house people, or you get that.

        Maybe I’m just bitter about the boatload of money I paid for repairs only for the fucking elevator to work only 3 months of the year. I was on floor 13. I remember similar complaints from others.
