According to YouGov, who I think conduct their polls in Britain, 23% of people like him. It'll be more than that in the US.

And to give you an idea, that is more popular than a bunch of quite good British politicians, more popular than the pope and more than Ursula von der Leyen. All this to say, while he's not popular, he's not that unpopular either, so there's a lot of scope for people to forget the nazi salutes.

I think the vast majority of those people would adapt to 25 degrees (with light clothing!) with enough time. Why? Because until recently, air conditioning didn't exist, yet people all over the world still managed to work through most of the day. Some cultures pause work during the hottest part of the day, but that won't avoid temperatures over 25 degrees in a great many places where temperatures into the 30s are common. Likewise some people would suffer, but I think if those temperatures were genuinely unpleasant for a large part of the population with the available technology, you would see it.

A big factor in my opinion here though is that I used to think similarly, until I spent a hot summer in a warm flat and am now perfectly comfortable at 29 degrees, given a week or two to adjust up to that point. So given that I would have said the same thing 10 years ago, I find it difficult to believe you now without something more.

4 degrees above standard room temperature is hellish?

With a fan pointed directly at me, I don't need AC when it's 30 degrees inside. A fan per employee would be more efficient than AC, and the world is literally on fire due to our energy consumption.

Even worse than people who just have the AC on when it's not needed (and OK, not everyone is as tolerant to warm temperatures as I am - though I note that I always thought I felt the heat more than most, until I lived in a warm flat and just got used to it) is people who insist on sticking to an extremely low AC temperature.

Everyone can deal with an indoor temperature of 25C, that's literally unproblematic. If you set your AC to below 25 for more than a few days, it's not even for comfort, it's because of ignorance or obstinacy.

From what I've read about DS2 I would not enjoy it harder than any of the others, to the point where the other factors would cease to make up for it :P

I kind of don't like them either, but they're addictive and the vibes are immaculate so here I am with a couple of hundred hours over DS1, DS3 and ER...
