Too true. I remember the scandal the so-called artwork "Piss Christ" caused. A crucifix was placed in a vat of the so-called artist's own urine. "Oooo....edgy....art should be challenging." When pointed out that it's hardly "challenging" to mock something leftwingers often despise, that perhaps really "edgy" would be putting a red AIDS ribbon in a jar of urine and calling it "Piss AIDS" might REALLY be "edgy" - somehow the artistic crowd is suddenly shocked.
