Fake Dada

Have you seen anything more ridiculous?

"Dada" conducted with the approval of an institution like the New York Public Library, which, uh, misses the point of what Dada was about.

What we have here is a collection of confused New York City hipsters with not a microdot of originality to themselves, so all they can do is try to recycle ideas they learned about in Ivy League class.

Of course, a literary group that was doing something akin to real Dada-- and actually shocking snobby people-- faced only outrage from folks like this effete "Cabinet" bunch.

Will the Cabinet kids throw potato salad on Library administrators and denounce them, I wonder?

(The administrators will be saying, "Oh, how cute. A mock trial. Look at the children.)
