Comments by "On The Piss" (@On_The_Piss) on "The Revolution That Is Changing Architecture" video.

  1. I genuinely think 99% of the people in the comments have NO IDEA what modernism actually is, the history of it, and what it strives to achieve. Perhaps we should consider that buildings are not just exteriors. Interiors matter too. And I know I’d rather live in a light filled, thought out modernist building than a decrepit, tacky, dark and cold traditional building. And you would too.

  2. This is just subjective nonsense. This video has described modernism as “hideous” without explaining why. Zero insight, just subjective feelings. Yawn. If we are dealing in subjective feelings, I find classical buildings to be busy, tacky and garish. Neo-classical architecture is even worse. Clinging onto a past that everybody has left behind. Hardly a revolution, rather it is regression.

  3. Traditionalists holding up progress as usual.

  4.  @alleghanyonce  I’d love to see how much light you can fit through those tiny little “beautiful” windows on those classical facades. It’s clear 99% of the people on here have absolutely no idea about architecture beyond “ugly” or “beautiful”. There’s much more to architecture than aesthetics.

  5. Architecture has always been political, whether you like it or not.

  7.  @buragi5441  so you studied architecture at university I assume? Please define “beauty”, specifically. You can’t because it’s subjective. I don’t think classical architecture is beautiful. I find it tacky, busy and garish. And the interiors are mostly cold, damp and dark.

  8.  @lawrenceholden5716 Wow, it’s almost as if anybody who actually designs buildings knows that regression back to cold, dark, damp classical architecture is not in the best interests of anybody.

  9.  @Blatsen  Architecture is inherently political, it always has been and always will be.

  11.  @the_aesthetic_city Your video is subjective nonsense. You describe modernism as “hideous” without explaining why. If we’re dealing in subjective emotive opinion, I find “classical” architecture to be busy, tacky and garish. Next time present your video from both sides. 🤡

  12.  @the_aesthetic_city also, moving backwards to traditionalism is not a “revolution”, it is regression. Traditionalism was never a movement “for the people”, it was the opposite in fact - architecture designed for a tiny, wealthy, royal few.

  13.  @Scbalq  Hitler also hated modernism, just saying

  14. It is frustrating to see your apparent misunderstanding of the difference between "modern" and "modernist". This video also shows a glaring misunderstanding of what modernism actually is. @randomdude4207

  15.  @ligametis Nope, according to this video you’re wrong - beauty is objective, and you don’t get to have an opinion.
