Happiness is connected to contentment, feeling you have enough.
There are people living in their cars who are happy, and elon musk, with all the money in the world, very much doesn't look like a happy person.

I read a story that once the US air force tried designing a pilot seat based on the average of the measurements of all their pilots and ended with something that was uncomfortable to all of them.

No country should be bigger than 200000-400000 km²

The US Democratic party is also a neoliberal right-wing party, just a bit more moderate.

If it wouldn't endanger people they might as well start sabotaging musk (if they aren't already)

Yes, it had bad consequences, but it's as I said, a highly experimental prototype, it exploding was certainly undesired, but also certainly not unexpected.

Not to defend musk, he's a complete shitbag, but the "rockets exploding" argument is stupid, it's always prototypes, or after the main mission is complete, which at worse makes them the same as every other rocket.

IIRC China does have elections, but people can only vote for local councils, and those elected then vote for higher positions; but there's no parties, and it's those currently in power that choose the candidates.

Well...
The name was "good OLD games"

The driving school I went to would fail people that used the "handbrake start" on a hill.

And also fail people that tried to drive backwards by looking back instead of using the mirrors.

Also, there's no such thing as "unbiased", it's more constructive if people are upfront and honest about their biases, but that takes self-reflection and self-knowledge.

To me seems to be people that think that the evil imperialist actions of countries that claim(ed) to be Communist are excused by the evil imperialist actions of the USA.

Brazil did much worse slavery, but the racism is "softer", there was a moment when 80% of the population was enslaved black/mixed people (indigenous were mostly just genocided away).
Because most people are mixed, the racism here today is just on looks instead of ancestry, and AFAIK less violent.

Do any exist?

Abortion is sometimes the less monstrous alternative in a horrible situation, and it should never be seen as less than that.
Women should have enough social safety nets that abortion would never even cross their minds.
It is mostly Capitalism with its focus on productivity and selling youth and beauty that pressures women into it, women are "freeing" themselves into Capitalistic slavery.

German Catholics wanting to split? Lutherans might be having a laugh

There are multiple books in the Bible praising intelligence, wisdom, and knowledge as gifts from God.

LLMs are just statistical models, all they know is how likely a text fragment is to appear near another text fragment.

If the wings are limbs, shouldn't insects be considered to have 8-10?
