Cmon..two. You can keep exhibits of any animal to show how well you raised it ( matter of taste whether you like fringed poodles and manicured cock-a-doodies ) but you can't make a PUSH THE BUTTON TO MASH THE GOLDGFISHES-exhibition item. That's not a matter of hypocrisy. To call it art, that's hypocrisy.
The hypocrisy to which I was referring was that of
animal rights activists getting upset about the killing of a goldfish, not the actual killing being art, or not. Calling it art isn't hypocrisy, but a display of poor taste. I don't think anything that displays/glorifies the harm or death of something living can be considered art, but that's just my opinion. :0)
