22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
That’s what I was going to refer to -

Bingo!
I do not dispute that those were among their goals, but I suspect that your items are not from an actual list compiled by the leftists, as I doubt they would describe their “superior” cultural items with all of those negative adjectives. Your list reads like something from one of those multi-forwarded emails.
You nailed it!
Part of the communist agenda to make us ugly and stupid inside.
But you will not be told that it is communist driven in art history and appreciation class.
