Hostile architecture is among the symptoms of the hostile modern city, where neighbours never say hi, and people die on the streets as people walk passivly by.
That should also include locked doors.
It should be illegal to hoard space in McMansions for luxuries such as a home gym/home theatre/separate dining room and breakfast nook/3-car garage while the Unhoused scramble for shelter.
I agree that massive mansions are wasteful and stupid but uh, I don't think anyone would agree that we should ban locking our doors
Agreed - ideally we'd cut right to the source of the problem and ban investment ownership of housing, or at least put a massive progressive tax on owning any dwellings that you don't personally live in. Then use that tax to fund public/social housing developments (like Vienna?)
