I agree completely. That's the purpose of urbanism that we have privatized: now the social interactions happen in the shopping mall or in the online shopping mall ( social media). These places are made to stimulate over consumption and to dry out any cultural movement or community identification; it's an sterilization of thought. In this way the same model can be replicated worldwide to maximize profits
