All these (I'm guessing) stock photos of Elmo are amazing! He looks like an idiot in all of them!

we're no better than medieval peasants who had to bow and scrape for the nobles' favor

It's been like that for decades(centuries?). The rich do as they please and the rest of us are treated like livestock. It's impressive citizens don't revolt more than they do these days.

It was probably an American fan(it is the US Open) who thinks that's still the German national anthem... Still good on the player for shutting that shit down, it's a misunderstanding that doesn't need to be repeated.

I've been told I am handsome

It doesn't count when it was said by your grandmother and you were six at the time.

In your discussions about Islam, do you confine your criticism to Islam as a religion, or do you branch off into the political and social roles that Islam plays and their negative contributions towards human development (sorry if I am making assumptions)?

This depends on who I'm talking to. I don't usually steer the debate towards politics my self because I don't feel like I'm well enough informed about foreign politics to start that particular debate. However one of my friends with whom I often have deep discussions is from Iran, and he loves debating the political side of what is going on there lately, so when I'm talking to him, the political and social roles of Islam is regularly touched upon. If I'm talking to someone who doesn't have a greater knowledge of the political side than I do, I try to keep it about the religion. If I'm going to debate something I know little or nothing about, I prefer if the other person does know something about it, so they can correct me if I make dumb assumptions because of my ignorance, and so I can learn a bit more and hopefully become less ignorant with time.

Edit: a word

I'm impressed that Cyberpunk is in the top 10 considering how much flack that game caught.

A bottle. As some Dutch person said in another comment, cigarette lighters, edges of tables and another bottle are popular options. Please don't use your teeth. I have a nice, rounded tooth that I used to use for opening beers when I was younger - I was lucky I didn't damage it more.
