    Hostile architecture, like many other aberrations such as everyone travelling solo by car, is a result of our refusal to police dysfunction.

    We refuse to confront the problem head on so it instead comes up everywhere. A lot of things are like this. Repression only takes you so far.

      The dysfunction needs more empathy.

        Do you empathize with the fent addicts at the bus stop? Or do you not think about that in your car?

        Personally, I empathize with the other bus riders who just want to get where they are going without being accosted.

          I try to emphasize with everyone. I fail, more often than I succeed.
