During the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler, German modernist art, including many works of internationally renowned artists, was removed from state-owned museums and banned in Nazi Germany on the grounds that such art was an “insult to German feeling”, un-German, Freemasonic, Jewish, or Communist in nature. Some were destroyed, some were taken by Nazis leaders for their private collections, many were sold. Picasso museum in Paris has organized an exhibit of 60 paintings. I visited it. In fact every school of modern painting, from Van Gogh and impressionists, to abstract painters as Kandinsky. was included. [Degenerate art by Nazis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degenerate_art#:~:text=Degenerate%20Art%20also%20was%20the,the%20art%20and%20the%20artists.) Then I remembered the rejection by the Nazis of the " Jewish sciences" and their disinterest for fundamental research. The French Wikipedia paper tells much more. [Nazis and science](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_technology_in_Nazi_Germany) And, i could not not to think of the Maga attitude toward arts and sciences, their obsession for purity, their views on wokism, and their will to banish wokism from everywhere, their rejection of science for ideological reasons. Nazis crippled German science durably. Comparison is not reason, but sometimes, it helps. ---

Thousands of books have been censored everywhere in USA as woke, including Tom Sawyer, Mauss, the handmaid’s tale, 1984 and so. Science is heavily rejected, denied and censored. Everything which contests the established order of Evangelists is rejected and censored. From my USA brother : MAGA = Morons are governing America ---
