When interior design requires beheading a communist

[topum]

Our resident hipsters found these remains of an old communist statue somewhere at the edge of the village and now want to chop its head off and use it to decorate our community house rather like they would use say head of Thalia or Benevento Head.

You could argue that of many works of art from the past, however. Trajan's Column, for example, is pretty disturbing when you think about the fact that it shows an imperial nation overthrowing a neighbour, killing its people and dragging them off into slavery...

But perhaps it needs to be underground for a few more decades to allow the reality to wash off a bit more.

Perhaps.  In a few decades I won't care about much anyway except what time dinner is and what time the price is right is on.  What time the nurse comes around with meds.  I'll likely be in a nursing home by then.  Pissing myself and forgetting my name.

And your nephews will be all excited to tell you about some super interesting communist art they just saw in a museum when they come to visit.
