Art critic says you should shun anyone you know who voted Republican and is pro-lynching

I sort of have a soft spot for art critic Jerry Saltz, as he once called Twitchy parent site Townhall “very much part of far right-wing 90 percent all-white ethno-nationalist Republican Party … morally damaged certifiably insane Murder Incorporated traitor to country bad daddy-issues thing with authority machine.” Ninety percent all-white … that’s pretty white.

Saltz is one of those people who’d never catch our eye with his art criticism but some of his tweets belong in a museum. He’s one of those accounts that you can’t tell is a parody of progressivism or not, it’s so over-the-top. He says Republicanism needs to be “isolated and snuffed out” like the coronavirus, and that’s one of his tamer tweets.

Plus, the guy looks like a total beta.

Glenn Greenwald caught Saltz on Instagram doing what cults do: demanding you cut off and shun anyone who disagrees with you.

No, you have caused any rumble at all — maybe a few eye-rolls at best. But Jerry … can we call you Jerry? … can you tell us when Republicans did have “polite” political views that you could see yourself agreeing with? Do Democrats currently have polite political views?

Oh, we almost forgot … we want to bring back lynching. Why haven’t we, then? Where are all the lynchings?

Imagine just letting that hate go … engaging with a diverse group of people … finding out what they really stand for instead of accusing them of wanting to bring back lynchings.

Maybe it’s reviewing contemporary art that’s driven him mad:
