Manchester art gallery has removed a Victorian painting showing naked nymphs in a Lilly pool tempting a lad in...
Is the removal itself art, is it "political correctness gone mad" or is it the modern day equivalent of the mods' removal of the gratuitous pics thread.
Serious and measured responses only please...
 
Tear down statues of historical figures you dislike and justify it by holding them to modern day standards.
Attempt to ban people who hold a different opinion to your own from public speaking, label anything you don't like "hate speech".
Push for criticism or questioning of certain ideologies to be made a criminal offence, while openly supporting hatred of other groups.
Use the law to enforce the use of what you deem acceptable language and opinions.

Call other people fascist with a straight face.
