That is a *great* idea. Instead, we'll probably get 240 hz displays on cell phones.

It's the woke way of distinguishing between the only *real* slavery -- that of North America -- and the humane forms of the ancient world. /s

Brings to mind the island community in the film The Wicker Man.

I have an old book EROS IN POMPEII about that art. I would imagine all the Roman and Greek areas had such art on constant display.

Think of the early Christians and Jews who had to live their lives seeing public displays of that.
