Building a table does imply a bunch of politically charged decisions: 1. Deciding that a new table is a worthwhile use of resources (vs reuse, for example) 2. Deciding who to sell it to (if it's not for your own use) 3. Deciding what to make it out of (resource cost, ethical implications of the supply chain, concern about wood glue toxicity, ...) And so on, and so forth. You might not consciously think about these as political, but.. that's also a political opinion. > then "it's political" has no useful meaning. Exactly.
