After the paintings will be the sculptures. Eventually nothing will exist depicting Western Culture.

Here’s a question I’d like to ask these milquetoast weenies: ‘

“Can you ever recall a single instance where the religion of peace EVER bent or wavered in order to not offend other religions?”

I don’t seek confrontation with the ass-lifters, but one day it will come. And I am ready for that day.

Cultural war much better than bloody conquest

Note that no actual muzzies had voiced any protest yet. Somehow, that makes it much, much worse.

How about censoring nothing. If you don’t like it: don’t look, don’t listen.

Let the Muslims build their own museum. And display whatever doesn’t offend them.

How many Muslim men do you estimate patronize Amsterdam’s red light district and its prostitutes in any given month? Do Muslim men want the red light district abolished too?

Simple. Muslims might be offended. Then don’t buy a ticket

The left hates the right so much that they use the Islamic scum as their weapon. It’s sickening.

Islam means submission.

Got there before I did. Be a good dhimmi.

"Europe is dead."

If not yet, it is certainly dying. I don't understand Europe's death wish.

Partner, Europe did not have an American General by the name of a "General Black Jack Pershing" that executed Mooslimbs soaking their bullets by using the blood of a hog whom they slaughtered before the American army executed the 49 Mooselimb agitators.

>>Earlier this month, the Van Gogh Museum’s new director, Emilie Gordenker, observed on Dutch national TV that while she is pleased the work is now hanging in the museum, she considers it important to address the question of “whether female nudes are appropriate for people of all cultures.”

It’s a global trend, many major museums have replaced leadership and curators. And they are publicly re-examining their collections to dispute “masterwork” status etc.

Get woke go broke

They got really good at death in the 20th century. I suspect they're only taking a break until racial and cultural interlopers really get on their nerves.

Tell her that Islam prohibits depictions of people, even clothed.

That’s why you see these exhibits of geometric art, architecture, and calligraphy when they exhibit Islamic art.
