Is Banksy political? social? ???, by jessfrancis on Aug 24, 2013 11:44:58 GMT 1, His Palestine Wall, numerous stencils criticising the British government, the Guantanamo Bay prisoner at Disney, the list goes on. His work is blatantly political...but is it because he himself is an activist inspired to make a change?
Or simply
He loves to sit back and watch the public discuss and argue (like we're doing now) over what is artwork, the meaning, the inspiration and etc.
What do you guys think?

Is he willing to get his hands dirty (beyond the odd bit of paint)? I sincerely doubt it. The messages in his work, whilst they could be interpreted as political are, lets be honest quite tame and vague and don't really point any fingers specifically.
