Trump wants a goth brutalist border wall with black spikes (no, really)

Isn’t that simply brutality or brutal?

Gene Simmons is a sexist piece of shit.

Pathetic little swine wants an erection he can not have…a monument to hate. The irony of his hatred for brown people shines on him with all his efforts to look tan and fit. Perhaps it’s just me but he seems to be fueling his destruction of the US with most lust and enthusiasm every time he finds a new way to hurt people. He’s like a tick sucking the soul out of our nation. History will gouge us hard for allowing this pig to the trough.

Trump was going to build a “beautiful” wall. Obviously the guy* has no taste.

Note that I refrained from calling him what he really is.

That’s pretty cool. I’d like to imagine those dumpsters in the parking lot are part of the design.

Here’s the wiki entry for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brutalist_architecture
It’s really all about the concrete (or at least brick wall) and neither masking it, nor the particular function of a building.
Brutalist architecture does not try to look menacing (needs to be regularly power washed though), while it often does look exaggerated and imposing.

Well it wouldn’t look so bad were the facade anywhere near properly clean.

No, no… he still hates them when they work for him he is exploiting them directly.

Now that’s a bunker…such air handling(all the tubes) all the cooling towers(roof stuff) that place needs to emit an impenetrable wall of black smoke and broadcast propaganda to the masses.

Though I think we all agree that the library could really use some flat black spikes on it. And all the post offices too…

The garbage bins are a nice touch. Though they should be made from concrete too…
