To be fair, GTA San Andreas was well designed.

That's funny and all but literally the only way I can tell apart Lithuania, Latvia and Esthonia is by using esoteric shit like the shape of power lines, the crosswalk and bus signs, and the angle of the km signs in highways. At least for the US I can gauge how racist the place looks from 50-100 before I make a guess.

Why is it such a crazy idea that the public should own the means of production?
You might find Gramsci's concept of cultural hegemony interesting.
tl,dr: The ruling class and its institutions influence perception and values. Cultural norms become so ingrained that they become "common sense" and "what's natural".

Question for the Usonians, imagine Iran and the US making a compromise where the US owns the straight of Hormuz and in exchange Iran now owns California. How would you react to this news?

You can blame usonian architect Frank Lloyd Wright for bringing that back to the lexicon. It comes from a Scottish-usonian writer who thought "American" was pretentious and variations of "United Statian" not specific.
Fun fact: In esperanto, the denonym of the US is "usono"

What about those small prebuilt workstations with Strix/Gorgon Halo chips and big ram pools? Chinese OEMs like Beeline and GMKTec are offering some sleek little boxes. I guess it still technically not unified on a system level, but you allot most of it to VRAM in the BIOS regardless. You can probably get comparable performance with a fraction of the cost.

This is probably one of the most shared pieces game lore, but it isn't actually true! Sid Meier himself explained in his memoirs.
Civ 1 only has three aggresion levels, and Gandhi always stayed at the lowest one, like many others leaders. A programmer might have to correct me here, but the language the game was written in (C) doesn't even have unsigned integers by default.
The myth probably spread out because it's a fun story, and being nuked by Gandhi is just a funny memorable thing that stuck with people. I haven't verified this, but he also has the Scientific trait, which means he's likely to reach the nuclear tech before other Civs.
