The tariffs on places like Cambodia reveal how little it has to do with domestic industry because Cambodia has basically zero manufacturing. Its exports are almost all raw inputs we'd need to import for manufacturing. Instead, the tariffs are simple imperialistic extortion.
The article isn't criticizing any individual specifically. We should all take note of who is just now pivoting on their support for genocide.
We had a similar lesson with the Iraq war. Many politicians and pundits parroted Bush about Saddam's WMDs and then later said it was all a lie. Those same people pandered lies again about 40 beheaded babies and secret Hamas bases under hospitals. Naming and shaming them now isn't the priority but we should not forget who they are unless we believe their lies again.
For the record: numerous women have spoke out against Trump for sexual misconduct while underaged. All the named ones are from Miss America or Miss Universe competitions. A couple of Epstein's victims have filed charges against Trump too but those remain anonymous.
Yes you literally do when you install the package. You're thinking of building the package. makepkg -i will prompt for root. pacman -U requires root. Both will execute the install() function of the PKGBUILD as root.
You're either citing some failed new deal policy or various libertarian myths that the government still pays farmers to destroy their crops.
When there is such a supply is too high and the demand is too low, farmers will destroy their own crops instead of taking them to market. This is because the price of the crop is lower than the price of actually taking it to market. This is bad for two reasons:
1 There could still be a real "demand" for the product just not an "economic" demand. IE people don't have the money to pay for the crop such as in the Great Depression or the COVID pandemic.
2 Food is the primary good you want as abundant as possible in any economy at the lowest prices. Other such goods are steel, energy, railway transport, ie goods that other markets depend on. That runs contrary to the interests of the producers of those goods. They want to hit the sweet spot where profit is highest. The two main solutions for this are subsidies or nationalization. For example, China has nationalized steel production and rail transport which they intentionally operate at a loss for the benefit of the rest of the economy.
They currently do need subsidies to be profitable. Farmers destroying their own crops to raise prices is a well documented historical fact and it still happens today particularly when it comes to livestock. This is not my abstract conjecture.
Many of food staples cannot be produced at a profit without subsidies, corn in particular. Since all of our farms are for profit farmers will destroy their crops Grapes Of Wrath style to drive up prices.

Use NewPipe. It only ever gets blocked if you're on VPN or if YouTube did an api update and the app needs to update to match.
If you want to view the content, its change the VPN server or use a residential IP. Residential proxies exist but are expensive and I'm not aware of any residential VPN services.
I only ever get this when I'm on a VPN. Sometimes reddit will do that to me too. It means someone's been abusing/scraping YouTube through your VPN server and they've temporarily blacklisted its IP address. Switch your VPN servers or turn off your VPN.
I don't want to fault people for avoiding Arch's instability in general but this is a very minor issue.
VLC is not a system critical package. I absolutely understand the mods choice to not put it in the RSS. At most they could put a notice in the pacman logs when it updates.
