    Upvoted because this is the one I most strongly disagree with.

    Hitlers art but ignore the holocaust?

    Lost Prophets but ignore the lead singers horrifying SA of children?

    Kanye West and his anti semitism insanity?

    Chris Brown and beating the shit out of women?

    R. Kelly and SA a child?

    Rowling and her hatred of trans children?

    Michael Jackson and his … weird child obsession?

    Gary Glitter and his SA?

      Separating the artist from the art is fine for me as long as you don’t support them. There is nothing inherently wrong with consuming media you like from a controversial figure.

      Of course it’s hard to separate the artist and the art if you actively give them money for it.

      I like some of Kanye West’s music but I would never spend a single cent on one of his albums, watch an ad on Youtube for his music videos or listen to his songs on streaming services.

        I cant stand listening to someone singing, knowing full well they rape children 🤷‍♀️

        each to their own I suppose
