I’m sure all the big players in the industry will step in with significantly reduced rates, knowing that so many people need the internet these days.

Fuck knows. I need to learn more about street whatchamacallit. Epistemology.

I guess I’m more talking about people who claim politics means nothing etc.

That looks like a Callistemon species or possible Red Ironbark. (both Australian).

The colour won’t last long in the raw. Polishing and oiling can bring some of it back in the finished piece.

Edit: I know I’m answering this on Lemmy and OP will never see it, but fuck Reddit.

They probably need their own made-up ‘license to perpetuate stoopid’.

I have, in younger years, not been particularly informed about politics and was glib in saying things like ‘they’re all the same” etc. but I was at least lucky to have a family background with enough smarts to never have given the time of day to a piece of shit like Trump.

To be charitable, there are unimaginably VAST numbers of people who are not actually idiots, but lack any point of intelligent reference in their family or community with which to leverage any thinking outside of the purposely-regressive framework set up by the GOP types; the RW media, the business grifters, the churches, the impassioned-but-warped-and-misguided funders, the downright evil. They are all in that mix.

Ever since he was the front runner in 2016 I’ve become determinedly interested in politics and the courts and become loquacious in attempting to describe their importance to people who claim the disinterest I used to.

Help spread the word to people you know need the help to understand the importance of it!

Yes politicians can be self-serving, but GENERALLY on the Left, particularly the progressive Left, politicians are not there to line their own pockets. This absolutely cannot be said for the Rightwing.
