I don't want it! I've never understood why an obscure modern art movement got so much traction in a field where much funding comes from the government. Wait... never mind, I guess it makes perfect sense. Consumers wouldn't buy brutalist soup cans, but the government can deliver architecture of almost any level of ugliness to people.

Well, at least brutalism isn't as ugly or wasteful of money as the HTML/CSS combo, and unlike the latter at least brutalism is not fundamentally wrong, so there's that.
