because fascists view art as the maintenance of aesthetic. to a fascist, art must inherently pursue and preserve a standard of 'beauty'. it feels nonsensical, but fascism is an ideology fundamentally centered around mythos and culture. An 'uncouth' or 'ugly' culture is 'd/generate', whereas a 'moral' and 'pretty' culture is 'pure'. fascists view art as the battlefield, because fascist analysis places the aesthetic at the level of importance that we place material conditions.
CHUDs constantly go on about “beauty” but fascists single-handedly turn country music into a punchline.
They’re not even good at living out their own values.
