It’s something I struggle with. Some bad news comes out about some public persona doing something shitty and they get cancelled. But sometimes I really struggle with giving up the things they’ve made because I like them. There are also occasions where the person has been accused of something and it doesn’t seem true to me, or I think they’re genuinely sorry and have been punished enough, and the context isn’t being considered.
What do you think? Who do you feel conflicted about enjoying?

While the work itself is a consideration, I consider respect of logic & rationality a higher consideration, so I absolutely loathe when people draw on irrelevant considerations (a genetic fallacy or guilt by association) to judge a work or the people who like it. Negative experiences with irrationality lead me to judge it as immoral & worthy of contempt.
