I don't think it's Linux-specific. There's a lot of dickheads in society. If you create a community around a particular topic or hobby, then most likely you'll get people there feeling arrogant/superior about their skills in that hobby/topic/etc and wanting to gatekeep it. It happens for a lot of things.

That's definitely a you thing of where you go on the internet. e.g. on Tumblr or ao3 the bias in the trans population is in the opposite direction.
That's not the case... There used to be more trans women visiting gender clinics than trans men, which we got old stats from, but nowadays all the stats you can see show it pretty much 50/50.
What I'm saying is not in dispute is the fact that you buy licences to play games and that licences can be revoked. Both of those are objective fact. It's a separate question as to whether or not a given state wants to enact punishment against a former licence holder.
Case law is specific to jurisdiction. I don't know where you live, and I've not said where I live. The way buying and selling most digital copies of games is through buying and selling licences, though some software you do pay for the download itself rather than paying for a licence. That doesn't require case law; that's literally just what it is, like how if I sign a contract I don't need case law to demonstrate that what I've signed is a contract, it just is. Case law adjudicates matters of law which are in dispute, not figuring out whether a spade is a spade.
In the first example, it is not fair use, because you don't buy digital copies of games—you buy a licence to play the game. My Minecraft licence would have been revoked when I didn't create a Microsoft account. Game companies can impose whatever conditions on a game licence they like (so long as the condition is not otherwise illegal).

They're using the acronym because it's targeting a political identity. They'd be targeting asexuals who go to pride parades or do advocacy or whatever. They're not going to chuck you in prison for not meeting your sex quota.
(assuming you rent) you can use command strips to stick organisers to your walls and use vertical space. You can use some of those stationery organisers and stick it to the wall. In general see if you can use more vertical space.
That's great though, because it makes cleaning the floor fun. You get to drive a remote controlled car instead of just mopping or whatever.
It definitely is, and I've done it several times.
One example is Minecraft, which I legit bought but no longer legitimately own, because when Microsoft took over they forced people to make Microsoft accounts and no longer allow Mojang accounts to be used to authenticate. Because I didn't make a Microsoft account, I no longer own the game, so now I play a pirated copy because I can no longer legitimately play it.
Another example is some games made by studios that went bust and there's no longer any legit distributor of the game, so the only copy you can download is a pirated copy.
It's still piracy if it circumvents the intended method of distribution and validation that you own a licence.
Same. It removes the ability to have plausible deniability of "oh I just forgot to tag it"—no, if you tagged it "non-AI" and it was actually vibe-coded, you clearly deliberately and consciously lied.

That's an insane litmus test of objective fact. I'd say a significant amount of court rulings go blatantly against reality lmfao.
You can't test things in court that aren't disputed because someone has to dispute it... Who's gonna dispute that a contract is a contract? Read the text it says when you buy a game. It says what it says. No court can say a document doesn't say the words it literally explicitly says.
