    The black square is a good example of art for the sake of it. It worth millions. People Just do not get redicule, it is just a black square

    If you're looking for art that is in no way associated with any sort of "bad" things I doubt there's much left throughout history - after all, most is created under the regime of the winners and if this were not enough work that includes the loosers is redacted.

    I'd rather not live in a 1984-esque world where everything is redacted if it offends modern concepts of morality as it would be an exceedingly boring place.

    An enemy that wishes to die for their country is the best sort to face - you both have the same aim in mind.
