>>7288885What argument can be made that this should be allowed? It can't have a positive impact on society, and can't hope to not harm those who comprise society in some ways. It is merit flipped on it's head.
>>7288897Whether or not it's contrarian or popular opinion has no impact on it's validity. This is irreverent.
>>7288900Thank you. I've never looked at it that way, but it's an interesting perspective.
>>7288902The content of Nazi approve art was relatively old fashioned, and if it did move men to kill there was the clear goal of moving them to do so for the good of "their people", which loosely means their idea of the common good. They may have missed the mark in many areas, but they were clearly willing to fight for their beliefs. Do you not think that the lack of passion in postmodern abstract art didn't have any impact on American minds through and after Vietnam, when we, through our own lack of belief in the cause, allowed communists to conquer, and send over a million people to reeducation camps? Do you think it had no negative impact on our society, or the world at large?
