    Then plant some. You will do something good for the betterment of the whole.

    Seeds you can get anywhere. You can also make cuttings from many live trees. Get soil, a pot. Plant, Grow a tree. When it’s big enough go and plant it outside.

    It’s not just rewarding to do something great for the ecosystem, it’s also fucking radical. Get Rad, plant a tree!

      I don’t live in the USA, I live in west germany that had to compete with the living standards in east germany and so when rebuilding had to make sure our residential areas are similarly constructed with care for how the laborers living there would feel about them. That’s how I know what that place you posted looks like with normal saturation and in summer.

      Also my point wasn’t just about the trees, but the clear planning that went into that whole area. You can’t do “just plant trees bro” in US cities because it’s just concrete and asphalt everywhere.

        I said it for you to do something good, instead of defending an oppressive dictatorship online.

        Have a good one. Pull up the saturation, it’s your life.

          Huh? How does countering anticommunist propaganda online prevent me from doing good offline? Two things can be true at once. (unironic)

          Also do you understand how that image is misleading? That it is made in a way to distort reality by depicting it in a certain light? That this is constantly ongoing?

          Two more examples

          Edit: also I know yanks are fucking bewildered at public parts with fruit trees, like you can just go in and pluck the fruit and eat it, so it’s fun to point out that that’s a thing that existed in this supposed “hellhole that was cheapening out at every turn”

            If you spend time defending genocidal dictatorship there must be something deeply disturbed in your ability to discern between good and bad.

              Do you understand how the image you posted is an inaccurate, misleading depiction of reality that does nothing to prove your point, rather undermines it, yes or no? Why are you relying on misleading propaganda to attack this “genocidal dictatorship”? Surely there must be better material how horrible life was in the USSR than this shit right?
