It sounds like "out of the cities" is looking better and better. Faulty construction isn't just limited to your area. In the states, we have whole rail lines that need to be fixed, and whole city buildings that need to be repaired.
I think this is what happens when the DIE crowd started taking over businesses. If they don't have o have pride in their work anymore, you'll get more and more of this faulty bullshit.
I think the DIE crowd are certainly an issue with information technology judging by the amount of glitchy, bug ridden software and online interfaces that I encounter. As for the Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete issue, given that it started to be used from the late 1950s onwards when there was no hint of DIE, I reckon it's a case of hubris. The 1960s were notorious for that, which is why our cities have been left with a regretable architectural heritage:( Also in the UK, there have been numerous issues in the past with cost cutting, corner cutting and in some cases corruption which led to poor construction standards. Mind you, it's the DIE crowd who are tasked with fixing this mess... As for getting out of the cities, thankfully, I'm outside the border of Bristol on the edge of mile after mile of open countryside;)
Where do we go from here? If you can get out of the city and surround yourself with like minded people who are not blindly walking into "The Ring of Fire", GO!
Where I live, it's between two cities, Bath and Bristol. Bath is a small city and in my experience, the smaller cities here in the UK that have managed to retain their historical cores and have resisted the depradations of the developers are reasonably okay. Bristol by comparison is a) big b) badly run c) socially polarised and d) dysfunctional.
1. "Diversity" undermines social cohesion. What should be stressed is unity as members of a country, and never diversity.
2. The resentments of the large pool of incompetents is used politically to get incompetents appointed to positions they are not qualified for, in the name of "equity."
I think that's definitely a factor in some areas, particularly information technology judging by the amount of bug ridden software and glitchy interfaces I keep encountering! As for the Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete issue, since that has been in use since the late 1950s and was used extensively in the 60s and 70s when there was no talk of 'diversity' in the workplace, I think the issue is one of hubris. Also cost and corner cutting at the time played a part in storing up the legacy we have to deal with now.
." They hope things will get to the point where people will be desperate for some kind of stability, regardless of any costs in terms of lost freedoms."
It's all there in the book of Revelation. People will want a leader, a saviour to get them out of the mess. And one will rise up, known as the Antichrist. This is ultimately a spiritual war. Read the Book, and find out how it all ends.

Thank-you for your article, spot on!

This is part of the Competence Crisis:
https://patrick.net/post/1379490/2023-06-05-from-meritocracy-to-diversity-complex
The fundamental reasons are:
1. "Diversity" undermines social cohesion. What should be stressed is unity as members of a country, and never diversity.
2. The resentments of the large pool of incompetents is used politically to get incompetents appointed to positions they are not qualified for, in the name of "equity."
