While it's fun to laugh at shitty ugly starchitecture, the *majority* of bad urban architecture is driven by a combination of mandatory car-centrism and the short-term financial incentives of margin-maximizing, speculative financialized RE development!

The Committee to Protect Journalists: "CPJ Troubles by Prosecution of Julian Assange."
We strongly condemn the detention of #JulianAssange and the violation of freedom of speech. Our solidarity is with this brother who is persecuted by the US government for bringing to light its human rights violations, murders of civilians and diplomatic espionage #FreeJulian pic.twitter.com/ls3PWBMSeq

It turns out that bastion of journalism @MeghanMcCain is also against @wikileaks & Assange, saying "I hope he rots in hell." Now imagine the collective aneurysm the establishment would have if someone said that about her dad. Everyone is equal but some are more equal than others.
