Until it sadly reaches a point of absurdity. The place you lived in should be as free as the air blowing around in it shouldn't it?! Less conflict, less fighting, more safety, less paranoia, more security, less worries, less fears, and so forth...sums to a given psychology over time. Of course, one part of the world lives this way, another part doesn't, nor really understands, and likely fuels it at times.
When western civilization began to emerge from that recess of siege, it abandoned old siege structures...one should imagine like heavy stone fortifications with moats, and boiling hot cauldrons at front gates. At least for other emerging worlds, that these sorts of structures, should seem absurd enough in their necessity, or to think how social mentality may have changed in some ways. The Castle in a way doesn't exist for those today as it once had existed, and ironically there are more weapons worldwide likely then ever. The other half of this question though is likely answered, one should imagine, in the way of civil space, change in social structures...obviously to put people more compactly in geographic confines, must have some implication with respect to the acquisition of social wealth, status, ownership of land, and so forth, or that at least more tightly drawn geographic confines in some ways, could make more sense in these sorts of social systems?! Here when landownership expands, and peoples have the ability to build wealth, equity, and personal freedom, they manage to build, in theory, defying old social orders, they hadn't generally thought in such way, to build for themselves castles each to their own, or likely could little afford it, and even if they did, it must still seem an absurdity to need a castle in such given space?! Surely if fortifications existed to repel invaders, the invaders at times could also be bargained, could be made wealthier, or hired at times for one's own personal security, but then I am humored to a proposed 'eastern' solution in solving the problem of the tornado, whereby building a magnificent and looming wall some hundreds of feet high, spanning a size able distance across America might eliminate the tornado in the mid west as we know it! Sadly enough though if one hoped for better building codes, while in some cases, this might be true concerning the matter of fortification, but likely it isn't as much so. Prevailing mentality outside of social media spheres, were more likely that this sort of erratic conflict just weren't enough in driving the notion of siege to improve the domestic shelter, or again return to the notion that there and aren't a lot of fences in the American mindset...if I remember siege at times, it could be an urban flashback, and occasionally something artificially driven sort. Stores don't operate around in such a location with bullet proof glass (as had been encountered at a local fast food joint so many decades ago), and that generally died off.
If one were surely to suffer, the typified mindset vanishes in time, doesn't it?! And what at times settles is that the distinctions of geography for siege, were somehow entirely arbitrary in a way, or that if you literally lived a mile away from another location, things could dramatically change as in rebirth into a new life...here the solution for the siege mentality, has strategically at times worked upon notions: worst enemy in one landscape, best friends in another landscape where none of the previous social inclinations exist. The other synthetic half, is the sort of juvenile that lived far away from it and much easier to hold the hostile grudge though, especially when one doesn't really suffer, and were less likely to suffer?! Or at least from another perspective, one supposes its the difference between building up insulating walls, versus having readied geographic isolation at one's disposal. And then potentially another mentality culminates into the quiet, reticent to say much of anything much that suffered and resented in a way all the sacrifice that went along with such suffering. Of course, this bit of speculation likely does little for the polyphony...living in siege is met with paradoxes isn't it, or that at least there is at least a strange nesting of worlds, a free world, a world with abandon, and a scary one that one hoped were reserved for the sake of fiction. Reasonably you are told to have in mind caution of some sort in some way. Only when traversing it briefly, I'd find a lot of quiet vacancy, and if I were like anything else of nature, as silent and invisible, or at least self effacing enough, the space should seem completely different, and there was much peace usually. How ironic for de militarized/ no occupancy zone?!
Did one relate so much to the gated community? Honestly, never lived there, and likely one should hope never living in such a place, or given to the absurd notion that affluence should bring with it so many woes or worries...yes, sure in Sao Paulo used to be the murder capital of the world, and could be in whatever statistical contingent an extortion case, but generally in the states, and for the distinctively humorous Midwestern American communities, upper crusts could live generally in un buffered geographic spaces literally within blocks of higher crime areas, and here the sense or feeling were that while potentially nothing were as a hermetically sealed tank in these cases, the red deer of the Czech republic dare not cross much the lines of demarcation (old iron curtains) into Germany, or what I like to call the 'magical invisible fence' does exist! Who needs gated communities then?! Ironically one should wonder if selling to the notion of protecting something that need be protecting, that the world were more dangerous in a way that it were, and it were but it weren't. At least, if in another twist of sad irony, that I sort of return to another analogy with respect to creating the perception of a given sanctified space, here such a space were attractive by the notion that the space itself should have something quite intrinsically valuable in it...then given another approach, drive the 'clunker', and you don't have as many problems. Minding all this were wealth were neither so highly stratified relative to its given surroundings. Granted it took a while for Constantinople to fall, its hard to imagine structures that are completely impenetrable, and these days if seeking such a place, one might find oneself truly buried under miles of earth, waiting for the end of the fallout from a WWIII that never happened. :)
