It got me hard.

Seems like people who are being fairly compensated in a comfortable work environment will make a better game than people being underpaid and overworked?

I can imagine Elon paying for this. I'm not saying he did, but I can imagine it.

Sounds like the way to not hate your job is to be rich?

Biking while too drunk to drive is probably still a bad idea. Not as bad as driving a car, but you can still cause a serious accident on a bike, especially on roads in the US where there aren't even bike lanes in most places.

Or all the suffering that has been and will be caused by climate change on behalf of the shareholders

I just play unciv instead now

Not sure if you're just joking, but plenty of people survive plane crashes. Most crashes aren't just a plane falling out of the sky at full speed. Survival rates are around 95%.

I don't think the Democratic party actually had a supermajority. January of 2009 there were 57 dem senators plus Bernie and Lieberman (who refused to vote for single payer); however, Al Franken wasn't sworn in until July because he barely won the election and Republicans forced a recount, leaving that Senate seat empty. Ted Kennedy was dying and stopped showing up in March and later died, Scott Brown (a Republican) won that seat in a special election. Kennedy did have a replacement who voted in favor of ACA right before Brown won his election.

I don't believe there was ever a time where dems actually had 60 votes in the Senate during 2009 except the pretty short period where they did manage to pass the ACA with exactly 60 votes that included Bernie, Lieberman, Franken, and Kennedy's temporary replacement. But remember that Franken wasn't there until July and Scott Brown got elected right after ACA passed the Senate in December 2009. So by the time the ACA made it to the House vote it was March 2010 and if the House Dems didn't pass it as it was, the Republicans would be able to block it in the Senate.

I'm not so sure that Dems would have done more if they had a proper supermajority, probably not

What are you even trying to communicate here?

The first Red Scare was in 1919 and communism was a big enough idea in the US that the government was putting communists in prison

Get dressed in dirty clothes, take a shower, and then get inside the dryer wearing your freshly showered clothes. Now you can wear the same thing all the time.

If you think those are leftwing news sources then you probably need to educate yourself a bit more on political ideology.

Censorship of the opposing side? The AG is a republican too.

I think it's also more likely that the cops would be the main problem

A) be rich

B) don't be poor

On their terms? The capitalists don't want you to cry while you're supposed to be working. Crying on their terms would be crying outside of work.

It's definitely a thing in the US and I imagine a lot of other places. Even smaller cities will usually have at least one. Some aren't going to have actual arcade cabinets (or not many of them), but will have consoles/emulators set up

Their definition of the "left" section of their spectrum:

Sources with a Left AllSides Media Bias Rating™ display bias in ways that strongly align with liberal, progressive, or left-wing thought and/or policy agendas.

Even they recognize that liberal and progressive ideas are separate from leftwing ideas, but for some reason have chosen to lump them into a single group. Likely because there are very few leftwing media outlets and none of them have any real name recognition when compared to CNN, MSNBC, etc.

Gotta watch out for "hidden societies" because it's almost always a dog whistle for Jewish people
