    You can still have trees and plant life in low density housing. You don’t need green deserts everywhere.

          We used to be a great nation… Invading… Murdering… Stealing… Imposing grass deserts… Now we have left the EU, are implementing government spyware and have no plans to make anything better…

          I don’t remember what my point was, but England is shit and I don’t want to be here anymore.

        Yup, tons more parking and tons more road space per capita as well. Low-density sprawl just needs a lot more stuff per capita.

        I don’t really care. As a lifelong apartment dweller; I hate people and want nothing to do with them. Get me a house far away from civilisation and I’ll be happy. Communal space, my arsehole.

          This is the insanity of people who advocate for densified housing, IMO. I loathe apartments and attached dwellings. It’s like a dystopian future where you can’t own anything or have private space. If I never have to share a wall or floor with someone again, it will be too soon.

            That’s our dystopian, low-density present.

              I’ve lived in 4 major cities including NYC, and several small cities. The small cities and green suburbs are light years better than the dense urban hellscapes, without exception. Apartment living is also universally awful. There’s nothing desirable to me about what you idealize.

                Don’t bother. The regulars on this sub are totally out of touch with reality and normal people.

                  I guess if I really wanted to scream at a wall, I’d make a c/fuck-fuckcars. These people are beyond help, but I hope they grow out of it so I don’t have to live in high density hell because infinite growth is just accepted as normal.
