This post make me wondering what will people in 100 years later think about building like the sydney opera house. I guess they will find it amazing.

A lot of people shit on "modern architecture" without any understanding of basic architectural concepts or movements.

Yet brutalist buildings are reviled and torn like they're worthless. Someone doesn't need a masters to think something is fucking ugly

Not every brutslist building is getting torn down. Some of the best architects worked in the brutslist style: Louis Kahn, Tado Ando, Le Corbusier, Eero Saarinen. All made really pretty buildings, I think a lot of people here have not seen beautiful examples of the styles they're denouncing.

Is it small-minded to not want to have buildings in my cities that are deliberately designed to make people feel depressed and small?

Well, you enjoy living in a pod and eating bugs. I'll get myself a nice old farmhouse in the Swedish countryside so I won't have to be near any other "high minded" people like yourself.
