  • So put Hitler’s paintings on permanent exhibition in a Berlin art museum?

    If they’re genuinely good, and contribute to world of Art as whole, why not? It’s not like people don’t listen to Wagner. My guess is that his works are lackluster and have made very little impact in the art world.

    Dalí’s work is revered, and, while he didn’t partake in genocide, he was a Francoist ghoul who shouted “¡olé!” at the assassination of his friend Federico García Lorca by Nationalists.



  • It’s definitely a much bigger issue in metal than you would find in, say, jazz or electronica.

    For a while, and I assume it continues today, there was/is a synth subgenre called fashwave, a Nazi-adjacent take on vaporwave. I imagine they have a niche elsewhere in the electro scene, and prob. industrial too?


  • Years ago, Brendan Small did a couple of characters on Comedy Bang Bang who, while being absolutely fucking hilarious and source of some of the top moments on the podcast, were kinda problematic, coming off as ethnic caricature. He quit doing those characters in 2017, for I think pretty obvious reasons, though I’m not sure whether anyone ever called him out on it. I assume it was similar to PFT’s rationale for dropping Ice-T from his own repertoire. In any event, you can take this however you will.
