  • Oof that’s a whole lot of assumptions. Not every single house owner even belongs to an HOA. Ostracization can also be caused by other factors, like those delightful people who arrange their used car collections.

    I’m going to go out on a wild limb and state that lawn ownership is not inherently facist. While it may be the local standard for many people in North America and West Europe, I believe home owners around the world generally have the choice of what to plant in their own property. As you said, there are problems with local setups, where HOAs or other controlling organizations are the norm.

    I’ve never heard of an HOA outside the US. Are they all run by the same organization, or do they tend to be different regionally? Genuinely curious, but I think the term “fascism” is generally used when there are literally no other options available. Is buying a house in the US conditional on joining an HOA? Is my perspective too narrow on this?
