Jerry Saltz is the senior art critic at New York Magazine. He is also, it would seem, a rabid homophobe:

Don’t worry, we got a screenshot:
“Great art.” He knows because he’s an art critic.

Got this one, too:
Make Homophobia Great Again!

This is homophobic

Why must this point require such constant repetition? Using gay sex of any kind as a means of denigrating someone means you think gay sex is innately degrading. It is not remotely great, and it’s embarrassing as hell to see it described as such.

Jokes about Trump having sex with men are homophobic. They are demeaning toward gay men. They make a punchline of gay intimacy. They imply that gay sex is humiliating and icky. Anyone who shares these jokes should be ashamed of themselves. https://t.co/IFHTHmtfrf

Paid art critic or casual homophobe. Whichever https://t.co/A10buwzLIZ

Stop using queer folk as a punchline to make fun of Trump, you asshat

This is homophobic crap. There are plenty of much better ways to criticize the right without giggling and calling them f**s.

This is wildly homophobic. Calling this 'great art' is pretty disappointing.

Update:
Jerry’s really, really sorry, you guys:
I deeply apologize for sharing an image that many found offensive and homophobic. I have learned from their comments and have deleted the tweet.
— Jerry Saltz (@jerrysaltz) July 31, 2018
Actually, it was two tweets. And actually, we call B.S.
But it was great art Jerry! Great art is supposed to offend! Jerry? Jerry….
