I have a simple definition of Art:

If I could do it, it ain’t Art.

Creativity, imagination and subsequent intelligence creates good: art, music comedy etc.....

Conform or else totalitarianism is the direct opposite.

They destroyed comedy-art, music etc....will follow.

They’re so ignorant as Dr Seuss is getting cancelled 90% of the creative arts folks are clapping along.

Suddenly, art was no longer a vehicle for vanity or the celebration of greatness or storytelling.

On the contrary, it seems that art has become nothing but a vehicle for vanity. Talent be damned.

It is evident in the way people dress to appear in public. It seems the goal is to be sloppy.

I remember seeing a newsreel of fans at a pro-football game around 1948. The fans were dressed in coats and ties.

Historians say the degenerate hippie culture of the sixties won out entirely.

THE 45 COMMUNIST GOALS AS READ INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 1963

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.”
