A piece of taxpayer-funded "art" in the Marquette, Michigan Art and Cultural Center depicts four Republican governors as Nazis. I found the article in The Blaze at http://www.theblaze.com/stories/art-taxpayer-funded-exhibit-equates-republican-govs-with-nazism/
I sent an e-mail to the city of Marquette's Arts and Cultural Center at arts@mqtcty.org. Here's what I had to say:
Is the hateful, despicable piece of political propaganda associating Republicans with Nazis to be considered "art" or "culture"? Just curious. Maybe someone on your committee should remind the "artist" (to use the term VERY loosely) that the Nazi party was first a union, then a political party, and its goals were very much in line with the current administration's and labor unions--an all-controlling state that picked winners and losers among businesses, favoring friends and eliminating enemies. Or perhaps the person (I hate to use the term "artist" again) who created the poster could create a similar one for Marxism, with pictures of Barack Obama, Andy Stern, Richard Trumka, Josef Stalin, and their ilk. Including pictures of the many tens of millions of human corpses left behind by their policies, even stacks of human skulls from Pol Pot's regime, would be the icing on the cake.
Maybe I shouldn't be surprised that people in the U.P. don't know art from Shinola.
