This has made the Washington Post giddy
Eight-foot-tall ‘Dictator Approved’ sculpture appears on National Mall
Remember the poop statue? The curly-swirly pile of doo that sat atop a replica of former House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-California) desk? The work of protest art placed on the National Mall last October in mock tribute to the Jan. 6 rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election?
Well, the artists responsible for the political poo plop appear to have struck again. This time with a work called “Dictator Approved,” an 8-foot-tall sculpture showing a gold-painted hand with a distinctive thumbs-up quashing the sea foam green crown of the Statue of Liberty. It sits at the same location on the Mall near Third Street NW as the poop statue did last fall.
The artwork’s creators intended “Dictator Approved” as a rejoinder to the June 14 military parade and authoritarianism, according to a permit issued by the National Park Service. The parade, the creators wrote in the application, “Will feature imagery similar to autocratic, oppressive regime, i.e. N. Korea, Russia, and China, marching through DC.” The purpose of the statue, they continued, is to call attention to “the praising these types of oppressive leaders have given Donald Trump.”
Now, imagine someone put a statue up making fun of Putin, Xi Jinping, or Kim Jong Un: what would those dictators do? At best, they’d be simply arrested and thrown in jail for life. Most likely, they’d disappear and be killed. Or be used as a public example and be killed or do some seriously hard labor. What will “dictator” Trump do? Nothing. In Trump’s dictator land they were able to get a permit. The contradiction of what these wackjobs are saying and doing versus what would actually happen in a dictatorship is wild.
“If these Democrat activists were living in a dictatorship, their eye-sore of a sculpture wouldn’t be sitting on the National Mall right now,” Abigail Jackson, a White House spokeswoman, wrote in an emailed statement. “In the United States of America you have the freedom to display your so-called ‘art,’ no matter how ugly it is.”
If this was a dictatorship Jackson would be talking about the creators having been arrested. But, you know, instead of having a real platform Democrats have to fearmonger
