The System Shock remake was really good, and that went through dev hell also, so it's completely possible.

The article doesn't say the group has anything to do with Israel, though, other than being of the same religion as Israel's government. Even the title specifies that they are French Jews.

There's probably some important context the article leaves out. Maybe French law requires companies to not align with political groups or something.

Even in an authoritarian regime, popularity still matters. Political scientists estimate that governments are in danger when at least 3.5% of the population is in the streets. The No Kings protests reached about 2%, and his popularity is still going down. If he were smart, he'd be extremely worried about that.

Yeah, but he also killed the guy who killed Hitler, so it balances out.

Source? Some googling turned up nothing like this.

Also the Onion. They're supposed to be satirical, of course, but reality is so insane right now that they're basically just reporting on the actual news in a comedic way.

Women can get pregnant so there is the possibility of an affair pregnancy, STDs work differently for men and women social and emotional standards are different.

Except for the social part to an extent, none of that is inherently true. Trans people obviously complicate a lot of those assumptions, but also cis people can have their personal issues that diverge from the commonassumptions. I would guess the idea is to encourage treating people as unique individuals rather than as stereotypes.

The fundamental basis of conservatism is that freedom means having power over other people. Therefore they believe that any attempt to extend freedom to others means taking it away from them.
