Simple for me. Their gift. Their terms.

If it's a problem for some, then just don't go a view the pieces.

I like this quote from Ameringer.... “I feel that where I am, and where we are, is a result of the education I received and connections I made at Penn State

Isn't that why a lot of us attended PSU?

And like StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle said: Their gift. Their terms.

So it’s going to Palmer and not towards barren’s museum? Interesting.

let me ask, their gift, their terms. Would you be okay with a gift of scholarship money for white, male, Protestant students ?
Sure, but that's my heritage. :) In today's world, I assume that you'd have to shop around to find an institution willing to accept those terms. I'm sure that Grove City would go for it.

This is a great post. Just do the bottom part now.

Replace it with religion, guns, flags/stickers all over trucks, yards, homes, clothes, self victimization that actually doesn't exist.......it's almost perfect. The irony that is this post is just a 10 out 10. It's brilliant. You basically equated the evangelicals/maga crowd to the ultra flamboyant gay crowd....brilliant. Thanks for posting that.....well done.

I lost it with laughter as soon as I read it the post. I'm not saying that is bdgan either....hopefully he didn't take it that way. I just find that meme dripping with irony where it probably originally came from. They have no idea that they are those people.

My first thought was, how bad (was it pictures of a fat nude Elvis on the hood of an F150) must this art be that they want to donate them to a museum 3000 miles away from their home.

Speaking for myself.... IMO art is art. I don't care who created it and I'll either like it or dislike it based on it's artistic value and my personal preferences.

Same with other things like sports and music. IMO the Hall of Fame is for the best regardless of race or sexual preference. I wouldn't be interested in a gay hall of fame. If that makes me racist or sexist do be it.

I think I can translate...homophobic may be the word he was looking for. Where is the hetero hall of fame I wonder.....is this porn star driven? I kid, I kid.
The interesting thing is - he is projecting his sexuality in an aggressive manner -kind of like the second photo he posted.

Good for him. Be loud. Be proud.

Maybe other more reputable museums don't think it's very good.⛱️
