It's because of inflation, plain and simple. As labor and material costs climbed, this incentivized the modernist movement. It started in Europe after WWI, but dominated after WWII. WWI and WWII being the two of the most inflationary events in history. WWII resulting in the spread of communism, socialism, and liberalism. Inherent to modernism is the philosophical rejection of ornamentation, the embrace of minimalism, and the principle of "form follows function."

Whereas old architecture was driven by SACRED GEOMETRY, really out of necessity. New archetecture is driven by cost-benefit analysis, ROI, financialization, economic efficiency. Liberals in the Weimar Republic embraced it because of its anti-Christian, anti-traditional symbolism.

Originally invented by White Americans and Europeans as means to utilize the new technologies of steel frame structures, tempered glass, and quick setting concrete, the jews adopted it and subverted it in the Weimar Republic and other areas of Europe and turned it into the degeneracy it became.

Bingo. No need for Tartarian nonsense. The truth is bad enough. The financial system requires constant need for profits to service the debt, ever expanding. You have two ways of accomplishing this, neither of which are sustainable: produce more, or become more efficient. While production can go up, we live on a finite planet with finite resources. So while raw production has increased in the past 150 years, it's more costly per unit, and not unlimited.

So you're left with efficiency. But that too is limited. However with the magic of engineering you can min-max your buildings. You can figure out the absolute minimum amount of material and labor your structure needs. So out goes the granite facades. Out goes the elaborate plaster work. Functioning windows are leaky and require a more robust HVAC system, so seal them up. And so on.

Of course, if it weren't for the poison of usury at the core of our society, we would be able to use the tools of engineering and new material science to build beautiful things. That does exist in limited instances. But in the vast majority of cases, it is used to suck the soul from our world to serve jewish/capitalist usury.
