I assume it was yet another scrapple project like that parking garage that collapsed earlier this year. Will America ever overcome its good-enough attitude?

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Soviets: some random steel plant had so much durability they couldn’t collapse it with modern weapons like 50 years later.
Americans: how much can we save in material costs if we fudge the numbers in the safety margin?
Let's also bring in the epic engineers of 14th century China for comparison. Their city walls were so durable that not even 20th century artillery could punch through them. Nowadays America builds their walls out of plastic and sawblades. Disgraceful!
sawblades?
Really makes you think about construction in China
American thing happens in America what is this, Asia?
North America is rightfully part of Asia
Can anyone confirm if this building was Made in China™ or made with Chinese materials?
i saw on twitter that there was an obvious crack on the front wall for years and all the inspectors "missed" it
Screenshots of Reddit text makes me want my 
back.
Firstly because I left Reddit for a reason. And secondly because what’s the point of screenshots of text when you can just paste the text, especially considering that some people with visual impariments can’t read screenshots?
it's funnier to imagine the redditors screeching just out of frame.
This is the infamous "chicken nugget pink slime construction" of America stemming from "cls-engh".
"cls-engh"
what's the joke here
fucked up transliteration scheme where you can barely tell what the original word was supposed to be.
A Reddit link was detected in your post. Here are links to the same location on Teddit and Libreddit, which are Reddit frontends that protect your privacy.
The occidental brainpan cannot conceive of a building that stands up
You see, this happens over there because bribery and greed are actually celebrated in their culture
you expect this from florida, but not glorious NYC :(
