Hah, this the time and place to bring out that old Slashdot meme (from the time when the word "meme" hadn't even "gone viral"):

Do you know who else hated the Bauhaus movement?

People inside the buildings adjacent to Bauhaus architecture?

The correct answer is Nazis IIRC. However it's sad that people are trying to imply someone is a Nazi since they hate the Bauhaus style.

Well, it is true that when I see someone bashing Bauhaus style without elaborating on why, I start looking through their comment history for far-right dogwhistles.

I'm not a fan of the Bauhaus's modern influence, but... yeah it's a bit uncomfortable when you find yourself hating the same thing that literal Nazis hated, even if you believe your reasons are not the same.
