The research indicates the arts and cultural sector is intolerant of viewpoints outside of the dominant norms. Anything that might be considered “politically incorrect” to the liberal-leaning sector – including expressing support or sympathy for Brexit, the Conservatives or other right-wing political parties – was felt to be risky territory.

Shocking, the same people who say "all art is political" treat the entirety of art like a propaganda machine.

Religion, gender and sexuality were also considered a “minefield” and no-go areas for many: “Anything to do with gender issues, especially trans issues, will get a lot of flak for either not being on message enough, or being off message, or too on message,” one person said.

Congratulations, you're playing a game you can't win, because the only rule is that the privileged class can beat you until you beg for mercy or until you're dead or until they find a more entertaining toy to beat on. Welcome to your progressive utopia.
