(edit) Even if the picture is about kids being sent to '40s Auschwitz to work, suffer, and die - that is what happened to real people. Don't look away. The gut-punch feeling is what you're supposed to feel and remember when people bring up fascist rhetoric. Again, not all art should be joyful.

I agree with you, but "intent" is also important when it comes to art. While I'd like to believe he had something like what you mentioned in mind, I think it's 1000% more likely he made that in an attempt to make a "too edgy for you" joke in poor taste.

You really can't think of any reason why that artwork would be controversial?

Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about? This is an art piece about someone shoving Pokeballs up their ass/vagina.

This guy is seriously fucked in the head. My introduction to him was Anya building a Lego model of Unfortunate Girl.
