Well said.

As I recall, the “art” known as “Piss Christ” (the “artist’s name for his “art”) ,was subsidized by the National Endowment for the Arts.

Yes, these people have the right to produce patently offensive “art” or “theater productions”, and we all have the right to criticize, and ask that our tax money not subsidize such filth.

Freedom of expression and all that, goes both ways. The liberals act as if it they can have their cake and eat it too.

Thanks Dilbert. Fiduciary is a word that gets nonprofits nervous. It evokes the specter of personal consequences for lack of judgement.

The “intelligentsia” have had it all their way since Worhol’s Campbell soup can art work hit the scene and the philistines were unable to appreciate its subtlety. I am hoping that the wind that is sweeping our Nation will blow them back into a small self admiring niche, that the rest of us can easily ignore and not unwittingly support.

Over the years the disconnect between the Avant-garde and the rest of us has been widening. Their sneering depravity continues to grow as does their repudiation of the virtues that enabled this Nation’s creation, and provided the environment that supports their self centered expressions.
