Unbeknownst to me, the National Endowment for the Arts gave $10,000 to a theater company to put on a play about two special snowflakes fighting gun rights.
NEA funding for 2017 has been announced and it is full of more funding for special snowflakes to push their special snowflake ideas in art that is too unpalatable to turn a profit in the real world.
In 2016, the NEA appropriated almost $148 million dollars to crap like this. I know in terms of money, that is not a lot for the Federal Government to spend, but I don’t care. Artists have become nuisance animals. All they do is eat the efforts of your hard work and shit in your yard.
If I am ever elected president, on my very first day in office I am going to redirect 100% of the NEA’s funding to NASA, DARPA, the VA, or just spend it on an epic 4th of July fireworks display over the White House. Anything more useful than what the NEA spends its money on now.
Lovely. I personally don’t care what art people make, no matter if it offends/opposes me, I just don’t want to pay for it. That’s the crux — we shouldn’t have to pay for others’ politics/art that offends/opposes us.

Then they name their “art piece”, “Feces in Grass”.
And God help you if you try to clean it up. That’s their ART, don’t you know, and they worked HARD on that! How DARE you destroy something in which they put SO MUCH EFFORT!?!?
