>>Generally the same applies to poverty though which is probably a more direct indicator than race.

Not the case in the US, poverty is a bad indicator, race is a good one.

Which game is it?

Today I learned that Mozilla was pro-censorship, and using their install base to promote this message.

The mob makes the rules, not LEGO's internal policies. That's cancel culture.

And businesses can't claim insurance money if they close, as they're not required to close by law.

you must have missed that in the UK, unlike the rest of Europe :
