It is worth considering the circumstances in which they were built, though - much of the worst of the classic eastern European "commie blocks" were basically just a desperate attempt to build something that would house people after WW2 flattened half of the continent. Throw in decades of under-maintenance for good measure.
So the upkeep part of this meme is bullshit?
I think, based on context, they mean the upkeep charges to residents, which are not necessarily the same as the cost to maintain the whole building
