    I’m confident this guy is serious and insane, but if you read it as satire, it really hits home.

    If I were a good writer, I would write a science fiction story that was about a guy who goes back in time and convinces the art school that this Hitler kid isn’t very good yet, but he has a lot of promise, so accept him.

      Eh, you’re only delaying the holocaust for about a year that way. Hitler was a talentless hack and he’d never make it in the art world in any timeline.

      So I hang around social media with a lot of Nazis (I have a fake white Facebook alt to befriend them and get them banned), and many of them collect prints of Hitler’s art. It’s pretty awful.

    The irony of this is that Hitler did have good business connections. Fascism cannot rise to power without strong support of big industry. Trump is trying to forge similar connections with the oil industry currently, offering to slash environmental regulations in exchange for a big campaign donation.

      Good thing the rest of the world isn’t as oil thirsty as the US
