Not true. The hoarding of wealth and resources isn’t purposeful in respect to climate change or any resultant global catastrophe, but simply happenstance. They hoard because greed is sickness.
So after googling, it seems that some devices store the image’s orientation in something called EXIF metadata and not all software is able to read the metadata.
So I found a quick workaround; I uploaded to imgur, took a screenshot, and then uploaded and the orientation was correct. Haven’t tried it yet, but I’m curious if I took a screenshot of the actual picture if it would net the same results.
