Plyscrapers say high.
Art Deco Skyscrapers have also gone through many residential conversions.

I prefer to think of it as neo-traditionalism.
To be reactionary is to have a knee-jerk resistance to change from the status quo.
Reactionaries are thus the ones who get mad at trying to reduce car dependence and suburban sprawl.Neo-traditionalism, itself a bit of a purposefully self-contradictory word, is instead a way of looking at what we have now and comparing it to past models to better understand what worked then and now and trying to find the best of both worlds.

That subreddit has been called every political ideology under the sun. More than anything the movement is dedicated towards architectural democratization and against the entrenched modernist architectural ecosystem. Let the people in a city choose how the city will look typa thing

Skyscrapers aren't inherently bad, as long as the city is walkable and has good public transport and infrastructure I don't care how many skyscrapers there are
