Maybe not as bad as the taste of Satan Hussein, but certainly God-awful.

I've been around the block a couple or three times.

The above photo is exactly like what certain high status people in Southeast Asia have in their homes. These are not old money people. They are people who made it after WW2.

The sad thing is much of the stuff you see in a place like that is really cheaply made. Places like that do not age well at all.

The article showed the excesses of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos. I didn't show that image.

...the only book present is a giant tribute to the late boxer Muhammad Ali. Say what you want about the late boxer, but he is not my idea of someone from whom to learn much.

I'd rather have books in leather bindings, a large collection of classical recordings, a giant movie display (for old movies, largely, as cinema is the definitive art form of the 20th century), and some art by second-tier painters -- maybe some that I 'discovered'.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
