Reply #79: This guy is an UNDEREDUCATED IDIOT, and has no idea what he's talking about [View All]

To start:

• Collecting art often has little to do with ideology.
  
  
• Most of the greatest artists of the early 20th century sympathized with either political extreme of the era. For instance, Picasso sympathized with the left, while Dali sided with the fascists. Their political tendencies did not diminish or improve their ARTISTIC GENIUS.
  
  
• If you like art by Picasso, doesn't make you a commie. If you like art by Dali, it doesn't make you a fascist. This should be evident to a 5th grader.
  
  
• Most importantly: FASCISM AND COMMUNISM ARE NOT THE SAME THING!!!! This irks me to no end. Uneducated morons like Glenn Beck, who have no idea what they are spewing, keep putting in the same bag fascism and communism, when they are OPPOSED POLITICAL EXTREMES!!!! Communism is the extreme far left, and fascism is the extreme far right. They are not the same thing, although they both had TOTALITARIAN TENDENCIES (hence their rigid militarism, repression, etc). People should NOT get their news and their "history lessons" from a guy that barely has a high-school education.

Every day Glenn Beck makes it obvious for the entire country how much of a moron he is. It's quite embarrassing, frankly.
