But the idea that one's political philosophy and one's art are entirely separate is just wrong. Look at the paintings of Frida Kahlo or Diego Rivera. Those paintings often have elements of socialist thought within them yet I'm no Socialist but I love their work and so do most art historians.
How can you ask an artist to express themselves but not their politics because its "propaganda" and you don't agree with it? What next, censor themselves of cursing because little children might hear it? How compromised by political correctness are you will to demand?
