Housing is housing and I think Bulgaria has more than large housing development as it has a rich history AFAIK.
Nationalism sucks. Struggling against nationalism doesn’t work by attacking the nation though, but by attacking the nationalists.
Nationalism is ugly but Bulgaria is beautiful.
What’s the difference between Nationalism and Patriotism?
Xenophobia and racism.
So what’s the difference between xenophobia and racism
Honestly some people would say there isn’t one, or that xenophobia doesn’t exist and it’s all racism. We’ve learned from history that when some fascist needs an ‘other’ to rally the nation against, they start by explicitly sowing fear to exacerbate latent, unfocused fear of uncertainty into blatant, focused racism, in the name of ‘the nation’.
Xenophobia is the hatred of all foreigners, whereas racism is more targeted. If I’m OK with most foreigners but hate the French, that’s racism. But if I hate all foreigners then I’m xenophobic. (I’m neither btw.)
Bulgarias is more than just the mukulas
Yeah, it’s too shabby for you, but many someones grew up there an have emotional ties to the place. Not everyone wants to, or can, live in a nice suburb, on 1/4 acre of lawn.
Also, I bet that in most of these cases, they’re not being told that the building is being updated, that the state will pay for at least some of their interrim living inconvenience, and that they’re guaranteed an appartment when the reno is done, at marginal cost. No, they’re almost certainly being booted out with token compensation in order that more expensive appartments can be built which the old residents have absolutely no chance of affording.
internet users will see high density housing that allows for more community and green space than their suburban homes and call it ugly
If you think that sort of hideous crumbling building is the only way to do apartment blocks then lol
We need more fucking commie blocks in North America. I just want a house for gods sakes
:Whispers: “Because it is ugly.”
