The myth about the non-partisan nature of these federal sacred cows, is that instead of “removing politics” from art and the “humanities” they are used very frequently for advocates of one political bias or another to use their “art” to demonstrate their bias, using taxpayer money to to so.
It’s simple. Freedom of speech does not mean the government is required to supply you the megaphone.
In fact, the ONLY way for the government to be truly non-partisan in the “arts and humanities” is for government to stay out of it, completely.
I disagree. They are always used by the left, never by the right. The bias is always to the left.
