Truly excellent point. The closest thing to badass architecture that the neo-aristocracy is doing right now would be those godforsaken super-yachts. But they’re either en route, somewhere in the ocean where nobody can see them, or else just tied up at the pier, looking like a generically massive “look at my wealth dick” boat. Yawn.
Like you’re saying, they could at LEAST build some super-amazing buildings. Or maybe, like, two or three of them could get into a prick-waving contest, to see who’s gonna pay off more people’s fucking medical debt. Just to flex.
