Maybe it wasn't about the houses, maybe it was about the class divide that we made along the way.
Well then, they don't sound very nice over there.
at least from like the ~~average~~ stereotypical white American guy’s point of view

Is this guy actually cool in the eyes of the average white American guy's point of view?
Were they ever actually being critical?
Yes, they write satire. They can't be responsible for Poe's Law.
And think about the savings in road rage stress, and time wasted commuting.
From the article:
Overall, 43% of the products studied exceeded acceptable levels of lead and 35% exceeded cadmium levels, according to the study, which was based on a California law that sets maximum allowable dose levels for heavy metals in food. Food researchers often use the 1986 regulations, known as Prop 65, as a safety standard because the Food and Drug Administration doesn’t set limits on heavy metals in most foods, said Leigh Frame, director of integrative medicine at George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences and lead author of the study.
Later in the article he mentions that [7] was a study of her mood swings.
about the most trivial things
That's so it gets interpreted as a light ribbing.
It would be mean to say it about something that is actually serious.

Also, knowledge workers have a higher average salary than laborers. No guesses for which one is better suited to working from home.
Dude, they cancel shows whether you pay or not. Have you not seen what they do at Netflix?
Here's a video of a board meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQTUCOx7TwI
Also spending money on a service doesn't mean it'll make quality shows. Here's a video where Netflix frivolously spends subscribers money on things that no one cares about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXfTa7DCm5M
Yes, but you don't need lights if there are only bikes. Lights are there to prevent heavy vehicles from colliding. If there are no heavy vehicles, then the lights aren't needed.
The article acknowledges this in the conclusion (emphasis mine):
I’m done. There you have it. That’s my opinion about how ____ed the web is. Look, we will never get the web of old back. Let’s be honest, it wasn’t perfect either. The web of today is more accessible, more dynamic and pretty much a cornerstone of our society.
Accessibility wasn't the main topic discussed in the article. It was mostly pointing out that the current web is too centralised.

Rent has little to do with maintenance. If it did, it would mean that higher rent lead to more maintenance. This is not the case. Landlords are incentivised to maximise margins (rent minus expenses). If they don't have to pay for maintenance while getting a certain rent level, then they will opt for not maintaining.
Rent level is the maximum level that landlords will set to drain from their tenants. It has little to do with the maintenance or condition of the residence. There are plenty of examples that show poor housing standards being expensive.
The solution: Land Value Tax
