Honestly the show #megaconcert was a little bit of for me, knowing that Rafi Ahmad was appointed as one of the hosts there alongside Gilang Dirga and Ramzi. The latter is also a part of the local/regional government from what I know btw :")

RA was appointed by the president as #specialenvoy therefore it can be said that he is the part of currently ruling government hence the #elitism. It is contrary with the populism spirit as manifested through IF's musical works throughout his career

Is #fineart immoral? I’ve heard the argument that the only moral way to make a living as an artist is to do pornography and character commissions (since it doesn’t help the rich or a corporation). Unfortunately, I’m not overly interested in making porn or exclusively doing comms.

Do I have to change my interests to remain moral? #art #ethics #elitism
People give #Fortnite crap, but at least it doesn't push #kids into #gambling like #CounterStrike does!

The #Trump admin froze $10 billion in #grant #funding for #childcare & #family assistance programs in 5 states purportedly because of “serious concerns about widespread fraud” in state-administered programs.

All 5 states targeted — #California, #Colorado, #Illinois, #Minnesota & #NewYork — are led by #Democrats.
