    Yes, it can be.

    The Nazi party outlawed what it considered 'degenerate art' (Picasso among them). The Chinese burned books and artifacts during the communist cultural revolution. There is a relationship between art and power. Art affects how we form opinions, how we are represented and how we live; that could be dangerous. Take a look at this link, its about the power of the political cartoon:
