Of course it's a racket, not only fraudulent but hypocritical, sanctimonious and self-righteous. This is not new or even recent, but it's now so blatant that it's frankly indecent, not to mention contemptible. However, one must remember the fear factor--the players are mortally afraid of transgressing against the ever-more-rigid orthodoxy, and those who are cynical opportunists are not about to rain on their own parade and jeopardize their prospects, as that would run counter to their agenda.

Thanks for posting an image of that superb stolen Rembrandt, Franklin. Even as a photo it's exquisite.
