- glitchcrab 3y agoI'm not sure what gave you that idea, the title makes sense and the article was exactly what I expected. Judging by the comments this was the case for most people.
- cratermoon 3y agoWhat real locales are you thinking of?
- themadturk 3y agoMany locations in the former USSR and Eastern Bloc? North Korea?
- marsa 3y agosee the problem here is you somehow associate socialism -- i.e. socialist urbanism and architecture -- with dystopia
- themadturk 3y agoActually, I associate not the political philosophy, but the reality of everyday life in 20th century communist countries with dystopia.
- cratermoon 3y agoThe reality of everyday life in the 21st century for many people in capitalist countries is dystopian. GP is right, you're showing your bias.
