While art for art's sake was perhaps a bohemian creed in the 19th century, activism for activism's sake is an entirely different societal and cultural phenomenon. It is more like barbarianism than art! The moral and ethical implications are disturbing!
Activisms like Climate Change, Racism, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, LGBTQ and others have become like an orthodox pseudoreligion or the fanaticism of our time!
It is activism for more discord in society! The more, the better it seems!
Great pretensions and arrogance have replaced humility and respect! Tribalism, cultism replaced individualism! The ends justify the means!
Individual freedom and responsibility are under assault! Human civilization is a very thin veneer! Some great ancient civilizations have disappeared! Western civilization is not immune!
