That's why it's called The Banality of EvilThere's something doubly disturbing about nazi imagery in a wicker chair. It's just oddly suburban for a hate symbol.
If someone dug up Attila the Hun's artifacts, we wouldn't burn them , we'd put it in a museum.

Ok, I see your point.Might as well put everything by an evil part of history away. It might create modern (blank).
She wouldn't dare take Hitler's stuff out of Germany, that's globalism.
This is the same argument for keeping up Confederate statues. If art is shit just get rid of it, the world isn't any lesser.Museum. You don't burn history.
Should be a poll it looks like.
This is a auction, the people that win it can do whatever the fuck they want with it. If they want to burn the fucking thing and keep the ashes in a jar, that's fine.Museum. You don't burn history.

Of course the owner of something can do whatever they want with it. That goes without saying.This is a auction, the people that win it can do whatever the fuck they want with it. If they want to burn the fucking thing and keep the ashes in a jar, that's fine.
That's a trash argument imo. You can keep a statue preserved without having it on display.This is the same argument for keeping up Confederate statues. If art is shit just get rid of it, the world isn't any lesser.
That also has a lot more historic value than some random drawing made by a mass murderer with no artistic talent.A lot of Assyrian art is crude, we don't just pummel it to dust like the Islamic State with a sledgehammer. The fuck is this reasoning?
You can, but there's no reason to. It's not worth preserving.That's a trash argument imo. You can keep a statue preserved without having it on display.

Personally I share that opinion in that particular case, but the bottom line is that you're ok with/advocating for the destruction of a piece of history which I am 100% against regardless of the meaning/context. It is history whether we love it or despise it. So, opinions I guess.
Should we put his toe nail clippings in a museum too? He's not famous because of his amateur art.A mass murderer who happens to be one of the biggest world changing individuals in history.

Are we talking about a confederate statue still? Regardless, pretty much anything could be considered a piece of history, and I'm sure someone would value it. A piece of toilet paper in a thousand years might be of historical value.It's not a piece of history, it's something made by a historic person with no value of its own.
I constantly bring this up at every party. I abhor the man, but you gotta hand it to him-- at the end of the day he was a human. If we don't keep these toe nail clippings around, history may repeat itself.but dont you understand those nail clippings remind us all that hes not just a monster hes a human molded by circumstance just like us
Yes, but not one 50 years from now. Just because anything can be historic doesn't mean it should be. The Confederate statues have no historic value, these paintings have no historic value. General Lee and Hitler's toilet paper have no historic value. Just get rid of it, no museum would want it.Are we talking about a confederate statue still?
