    “Artists” who promote violence should spend their free time in jail.

      So all government officials then? Unless your government has never declared war on another country and only participated in defensive wars for their lands, ofc.

      You know, I could actually get behind that somewhat. Until your country gets taken over by fascists/communists and violent opposition is not only desired but should be encouraged via revolutionary anthems.

      Let’s reach another compromise: lemmy users whose opinions I deem retarded should spend their free time reincarnating.

          So you don’t agree with some people pointing a gun at a person, restraining them, and taking them to a new location against their will? Then how do you expect these artists to end up in jail? Ask politely?

          State violence is violence, even if you believe it’s justified

          Yes you do. It might be a small group, or even just a single person. To say otherwise as an obvious lie

      Who defines the difference between promoting and discussing via the art? Not you, certainly, since you weren’t able to predict that difficulty and account for it in your comment.

      I’d give you the usual lecture about the value inherent in social catharsis via music and literature in specific, and the arts as whole, but it’s blatantly obvious you didn’t come here for even polite discourse, much less the thoughts of anyone but yourself.

      So, you know, enjoy being you.
