WHY HOSTILE URBAN DESIGN SUCKS - 3 POINTS

In this post, we aim to present three key arguments that highlight the absurdity of hostile architecture and urban design. These points will be invaluable in any heated debate where you are advocating against hostile architecture, effectively challenging your opponent.

1. Hostile architecture is a solution to an existing problem.
WRONG
Hostile architecture and urban design do not solve problems; they merely shift them elsewhere.
2. Hostile architecture ensures public spaces are safe.
WRONG
While public spaces should indeed be safe, they must be safe for everyone. Hostile architecture and urban design make spaces secure for some while endangering others.
3. There is nothing wrong with design dictating specific usage.
WRONG
Hostile architecture and urban design represent a unique instance where public design is used to harm groups lacking self-funded or self-governed organizations to advocate for their rights. This is the ultimate form of discrimination.
