      Always worth remembering that American-style suburbs were a deliberate political project in the postwar period. They didn’t “just happen”, the government spend billions making them happen at the behest of auto makers, property developers, and racists (but I repeat myself).

      The article talks about it happening throughout Europe, and politicians getting death threats for it.

      It’s not limited to Americans. But hey, it’s mindless shitting on Americans, so let’s upvoted it even though the article makes it clear the point makes no sense! We’re so much better than those Americans who don’t even bother to educate themselves.
