Defenestration? In this economy? Windows are to expensive to waste on Fascists. Let's use something more environmentally and economically friendly and reusable.

Yeah, it doesn't though. The second amendment says nothing like that. It says militias can have weapons to defend the state from enemies. It does not say citizens can fight tyrants controlling the state, despite what a lot of media would lead you to believe.
It's really short. Read it, and read it critically. Don't try to read what you've already been told.
Some of our founders wrote and spoke about fighting tyrants, but there's not like a constitutional protection for it or anything like that.
Like the other comment says, players build cities. A quick search says there are 81 cities with over 5m people each in the world. Most city builders we're building at the scale of these large cities, so that means over 81 players would be over the population we have in the real world. If there are thousands of players, yeah, it's going to get tight. If there are tens of thousands, there's not enough space.
It was exploited. That's how they proved it worked. They just didn't exploit it to do anything nefarious.
There is an argument to be made that having secure high paying government jobs harms other sectors by taking employees and raising average pay, forcing them to keep up. We aren't anywhere near that being an issue though, but there is a limit where more government jobs can make recovery harder, when other sectors go out of business competing with it and there's nowhere for anyone to go once the government jobs close.
This wouldn't be "defending it" like a copyright claim. This would be suing for damages. It doesn't matter how much they care about the brand. They'd sue to get money based on a loss of potential sales (future and present) and any other harm done.
I could see them not wanting to rock the boat, but I don't think it's a smart play. They'll go down either way if the Fascists want, and they clearly don't care about them enough to not damage them.
The MAGA base does actually care about pedophilia. They've been told it's trans people committing it though. If they see evidence that it's the elite, in particular Trump, then some will flip, or at least lose interest. Assuming we have elections in the future (even local will be useful), this is something we should push.
Don't expect it to lead to immediate consequences. I don't think anyone expects that. Expect it to lead to them losing control of some of their base.
If they can take something like "woke" and use it to mean something bad, we can take infowars and use it for something good (and correct/accurate). Make that usage of the word the default when people hear it, not the other thing.
I would argue this is a politics community. Sure, it's focus is on absurd stories, but it's still political. Just saying some stories are absurd is political.
DC2 is still fairly similar with the dungeons (though much less grindy, and far less annoying with running out of water or whatever, from my memory). 2 adds a ton of other things to do though. If you're tired of grinding dungeons, go fishing, breed your fish for races and events, go golfing, find things to take pictures of for inventing, progress your town for more unlocks, advance NPC quests to add them to your group, etc. 1 is fairly linear with one way to progress. 2 has probably a dozen different activities to progress in, so you can do whatever you want in the moment.

Yeah, absolutely. It specifically says "a well regulated militia." It meant militias could keep armories of weapons for their members to use. It didn't mean every random person would have one at their house. If they meant citizens being armed they would have written that.
