Leiden University Removes Work of Famed Dutch Artist Due to the Depiction of Only White Males

…According to other reports the famed 90-year-old painter Rein Dool is irate over the move, which he called “incredibly narrow-minded.” His painting depicted the board of Leiden University in the 1970s with six serious-looking men with cigars in their mouths.

There have been similar removals of the portraits of white males from universities like Harvard and Yale and even courthouses. These are portraits and paintings that capture the history of these institutions. In this case, it is a significant piece of art that was removed.

The College Fix quotes a Jewish student who objected that one of the figures now removed is Dolf Cohen, famous historian and rector, who survived the holocaust by going into hiding. He became one of the most consequential academics in the country. One commenter is quoted as saying “he now turns his back to Leiden.”

In the meantime, the university appears in total cringing obedience. It noting that this is not the first objection that the painting is offensive or causing some to feel “unrepresented.”

To object to such actions is to risk being targeted in the next campaign….

This sort of shit was happening across Wiemar Germany as well in the 1920s. Satanic demons are erasing European cultures as fast as they can and the sheeple abide with this abuse, the same way they did in Wiemar Germany

there appears to be no limit on how stupid some people can be.

There is no limit to stupidity, whereas there is a limit to AI.
