There’s been a legitimacy crisis for a long time, but now white people are being affected, so it’s “new.”

In the downtown cores, where demolition costs are highest, there are lots of businesses that would be willing to re-locate once rents reset. Suburban office parks are the ones that should be torn down and redeveloped.
Someone who is drawn to the idea of leftism, but cant really see past the context of domestic US politics… communist imagery grafted onto LBJ, Carter and Bernie Sanders like a fancy hood ornament on a shitty car… no token of solidarity with oppressed people in other parts of the world that I noticed.
Grew up poor AF, but at least had the sense to make furniture out of wire spools, milk crates, cinder blocks, etc.
This type of tram is capable of operating off-wire for a short distance, useful for areas where overhead wires are not feasible due to obstructions or conflicts with other lines.

A pretty weird movie, imo. Even the protagonists seemed to lack any real agency during the film, and the climax was basically coming together to make peace with the unavoidability of an apocalyptic future. I think it says a lot about America in that we can be comfortable with a future that lacks any positive vision so long as it asks nothing of us.
