euros don't need to be made more aware of their superiority to savages. liberal shit will help noone. what does the artist hope swedes will do now? think, intervene?

i saw an interview with the artist was that its message was something much more subtle, intended to highlight the racist and colonialist aspects of the Western fascination with FGM as much as to decry its practice
that said, it seems safe to conclude that the piece either entirely failed to convey this or did so well beyond its wildest dreams in the exact opposite of the way its creator intended, (including a sense that heaps shame on him for its production). he certain feels misinterpreted from what i've heard. also this video is part of a series with quite a few revelations, probably the most surprising of which reveals that he's been staging the performance for nearly a decade, and that no one raised a peep until now.

communists should politicize art, not banish it and allow it to be exploited only by the bourgeois or fascists
actually it should be like that christian bale movie where if you have emotion u must die.

I agree!!! Art should go back to being an inherently political thing for rich kids who became dirtbags and dirtbags in general. Not just as a really efficient way of money laundering for oligarchs and their rowdy ass friends
