NY Magazine art critic Jerry Saltz calls for ‘shunning’ friends, family who vote GOP

New York magazine’s veteran art critic Jerry Saltz advised his social media followers to “shun” anybody who has voted for Republican political candidates — even if they are “friends and family.”

“If you know anyone who voted Republican — including friends and family — you should shun them,” Saltz wrote on his Instagram page on Sunday.

“No need to even tell them that you are no longer communicating with them or why,” Saltz wrote. “You own it [sic] yourself, to them, your country, and any idea of moral damage.”

Saltz — who was responding to a post of an old photo of Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee in drag, protesting a state law banning drag performances in front of kids — concluded the post by writing: “And yes, they want to bring back lynching.”

The Post has sought comment from Saltz and New York Magazine.

Funny. Like that would be a punishment. Someone that probably needs money, is going to shun me. It is to laugh.

It’s amazing how high you can get on those “bath salts”.

Wasn’t he supposed to “shun” republicans years ago? This dude is a little slow to get in the game.

It’s so cute when depraved liberals try to feel morally superior to everyone.

Egad - I’m being shunned by a New York art critic. Will my world ever be the same?

Jerry Saltz's advice to shun Republican family members will lead to shootings. We can't have such hate coming from the New York Magazine.

Jerry, Why do you think we care?

Do you suppose that Conservatives are such snowflakes that we'd change our view or our vote, if only we could be in the presence of knee-jerk liberals?

“Saltz replied to Greenwald, tweeting: “Republicans, as they are, no longer have what might be called your polite ‘political views’. They are anti-democratic, authoritarian”

Really? Then who weaponized the doj and fbi against church going catholics and parents attending school board meetings? Who weaponized the irs against the tea party? Who illegally spied on the Trump campaign? Who collaborated with Facebook and Twitter to censor conservative voices?

Decent, rational people neither trust or desire any substantial interaction with known Democrats. Wish this guy Saltz well and hope we never meet.
