Generally left wing is ‘making things better for people would be nice’
And is mostly bitterly divided between ‘cool, so let’s get started!’ And 'we must form a committee and personality cult to do capitalist accellerationism, only then can we murder everyone in the first group and then do the thing’ with some absolutely batshit jewels of ideology mixed in.
And the commie blocks are really in the center of that venn diagram. The party that made them was soaked in leftist blood, but the reason they look like that is because building them fast meant people got homes faster, so they were less concerned with giving each one a unique style.
Left wing is so loosely defined you can ask two people and get three answer’s. In this case the poster seems right wing and for him left wing=USSR. Ignoring that, this building style is probably the most efficient way to house as many people for as cheap as possible as fast as possible, which seems pretty left wing to me
Why is total efficiency left wing? Isn’t maximizing profit right wing? The buildings should be built to maximize happiness of the people who, together, decide on the architecture… at the expense of profit.
Isn’t this authoritarian architecture and not left wing architecture?

Making anything better is left wing.
