The New York Times recently endorsed having children boycott a Christmas performance of “The Nutcracker” merely because there was money from the Kochs involved in supporting it. Additionally, it would seem that art is no longer purely for art’s sake.

Thanks to Barack Obama’s failed presidency, the desperate Left is left with nothing to defend and can only personally destroy, and so they’ve created a world where the words “basketball,” “clouds” and “food stamps” are all racist. The only thing
