If an artist is revealed to be a racist, anti-vaxxer, or some other unacceptable characteristic? Can you then enjoy their music, stand-up, acting, etc?

@CinnamonGirlE it’s not that I don’t still think Clapton’s music is awesome but I don’t listen or sing along to it anymore. Morrison, Meatloaf the same. Makes me sad but my feeling in them have changed drastically.

I loved Fraser until I found out about Grammer’s politics. Can’t watch it now. Eastwood made many movies in my home area and was a fav until that empty chair moment. They hold no interest for me anymore. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

I seem to be able to do it easier with the music. Maybe because it is ingrained in my brain and part of my life associated with pleasurable things.
Seems more difficult with actors, like Kelsey Grammer for instance is a good one, Jon Voight, and the worst, James Woods.

@CinnamonGirlE music is easier, it’s such a part of our memories. Voight and Wood’s are dead to me. 😄

@NorCalCherylLyn
That pretty much seems to be a deciding factor for me. Music is baked in at this point. The other? Nope.

@CinnamonGirlE @NorCalCherylLyn
Some artists were assholes - Lou Reed, but I can forgive that. But supporting racist bully Trump, I cannot forgive it.

@Bix @NorCalCherylLyn
Agreed. Asshole is one thing. Lots of people are assholes with the chops to back it up. I moved past the line of supporting anyone who could support Trump some time back.

@CinnamonGirlE @NorCalCherylLyn
Trump is so damaged, in an evil way. If someone cannot see it, then FUCK THEM.

@Bix @NorCalCherylLyn
I was honestly so astounded by people who could support him in the beginning it took me a while to gather my thoughts about them. Where I live, I am surrounded sadly. But yes.
