MODERATORS
nah this is just modern isolationist propaganda, people have lived without "privacy" for millions of years and were clearly happier for it.
People nowadays think they want privacy, when in fact they've just been robbed of closeness to others during their childhood and never learned to deal with having other people close to them. Like for fuck's sake in the US it's completely normal to put infants in a completely separate room! It's inhumane!
Humans are profoundly social animals and thrive when surrounded by others, we are literally living in an officially recognized loneliness epidemic that is harming our physical and mental health.
Yeah I think a lot of that is true but I grew up in apartments and never want to go back to that, luckily we were able to split a house with my wife's parents so we still share a wall but it's with family and that is definitely better than random people, plus having some space where you can grow some plants or let your dogs run around is amazing. I wish my and my friends would have gotten together and bought a big pie e of land where we built our homes on and lived together I think that would be really cool
