While your point is taken, this *was* also before homes needed to be wired for electricity or ductwork for central A/C. Plywood shacks do have their merits
If your ac goes out, a plywood shack turns into a death trap in summer swelters. Been there, done that. Used to live in a trailer when the AC completely shit the bed and we lived in an oven with no half decent ventilation for a month waiting for HVAC guys to fix it. Southeast BTW, probably less of a problem for Yankees to be fair. There was a heat wave that year and another person next to us had their ac shit the bed too, and they ended up dying.
Colonial style architecture all the way up to 1950s era architecture doesn't even need ac. It's a nice comfort to have, but those houses are ventilated in such a way and that they create natural wind tunnels in the summer, theyre built with thick materials that absorb heat and dont transfer to the house, high ceilings, porches, etc. Plus other passive heat protection aspects like being painted white and shutters instead of blinds. Plus they can have and usually do have AC systems retrofitted.
Furthermore, I consider that Israel must be destroyed

you really think we cant wire for electricity in old homes my guy? thats your point? turn houses into papersheets because of those? jewish brainrot
Frame and drywall construction make renovations a lot easier when running plumbing, electric, HVAC, etc. Well build frame construction can be very durable and architectually beautiful. We've been building it for centuries. Plenty of homes that are 100-150 years or older that are frame built with stained windows, engraved woodwork, hand laid masonry, etc.
The real problem was turning homes into min-maxed commodities built by low skill illegal nons.

Wait, where's the African colonial style? I was reliably informed they built America; surely you could find *one* example of the African architectural style in America.

The Wikipedia article is pretty depressing. You either have North African/Middle Eastern mosques as the prime examples, or you have the mud huts and stone piles of SS Africa (outside of the "European influences" and "Post-colonial" sections). Open the "Architecture in Germany" page and you have downright majestic structures. One of the more African-looking stone stacks allegedly dates back 350,000 years! Wild. By ~700 BC, they were already framing houses with more advanced methods and tech than what we see in uncolonized Africa *today*.
And yet "only one race human race" people exist.

The African is my brother but he is my younger brother by several centuries. We were all once just as primitive, and our development took time. I believe the main reason we developed faster is the north dealing with winters. With resources less abundant and the requirement to make shelter to survive, it makes sense that we would either evolve or die. Winters also enforced community loyalty by making expulsion from your village into a death sentence. And then beyond he colonial era, most primitive cultures in the world halted their development entirely and their populations boomed due to western "aid".
I view *races* as subspecies of humans, but human nonetheless.

My man, by several millennia at best. They were in the stone age (similar to the natives in America) until the Europeans showed up... that's a difference of 4,000 years, *at best*. There was no indication that they were "just about to figure out metalurgy when we showed up," so really you're probably talking at least 50,000 years of difference, which is enough time to turn a Canis lupus into Canis familiaris. That's IF they were even on a trajectory to figure out metalurgy at all, which isn't guaranteed.
They are as different as wolves are from dogs, horses from zebras, etc.

And I'm gonna reply to my own comment to say it almost seems cruel to try to integrate them with us and force them onto an evolutionary path that, frankly, might not even be available to them. Their genetic foundation might not be built to support where ours is leading. It's clearly not built to cope where ours is now.
So, unaffordable homes for the American middle class at the time?

Just no to the Spanish beaner house. The Dutch ones look like what the 70s cookie cutter houses in North America were modelled after. The French one looks too pompous.
Georgian all the way.

>beaner house
That's a direct evolution of Roman style architecture and thus it's a link to the oldest architectural styles in Europe. The fact that Spaniards built it in beaner-land is meaningless, houses like that are literally everywhere in Andalucia especially.
