That architecture's principle is older than WW1 and had been invented for british colonies. I'd call that early capitalism.

They were manufactured in factories and deployed at scale to provide much better housing for people in the context of a genocidal war against them destroying countless homes. Capitalism didn't house the people, socialism did. The styling of the architecture originating for British colonies is like calling socialist factories "capitalist" due to having electric power. What was once used for oppression is instead used for liberation.
