Bro this could be literally any large east-Asian city on an overcast day, most (all?) of which have better urban planning than the rest of the world by a large margin, and most of which fall firmly on the “capitalist” side of the spectrum. “Bloc” housing (or as we call them over here, big-ass apartment buildings) aren’t some communist-exclusive phenomenon.
Not sure about this picture, but generally Soviet blocs were built with lots of surrounding green space, all the amenities you’d need within walking distance, and the rest of the city connected by public transport. Way more human-friendly than the US suburban hellscape.
Yes because communist countries have ellegant urban planning 🤡

That can literally be the US with roads 2 miles wide

Westoids think bloc housing is uglier than homelessness.
If only there were more than these two dreary instantiations of differing economic frameworks, but as alas, I know only of these two pictures.
