This was my reasoning as well for selecting option A. OA provided is C. I feel choice A > C. Could those who have chosen C explain how it is a more appropriate answer over choice A ? Thanks.

A - Even if a majority of society agrees with the government then it is still screening and undemocratic. The issue in this question doesn't involve the number of people who are affected (rather its questioning the presence of censorship).

C - States that even if these projects are censured they can still be developed (through private contributions).

Hope this helps....if it doesn't let me know and I'll try to be more thorough.

I agree with C.

C attacks the issue at its core.

A weakens it but C is saying that the comparison itself is not valid. Just because financial support is not provided does not mean that artistic expression is being prevented entirely. The stem starts out with the artistic expression

Hi mates,

I'd go with C

The argument assumes that failing to fund the dance performance means to violate the freedom of expression. C denies that assumption

OA and Source?

Cheers
