The copium in some of these comments… Keep giving your money to terrible people so they feel rewarded for their acts and can continue to abuse others. I’m sure that will work out for the best.
I agree, there is a difference between separating the art from the artist and straight up sticking your head in the sand so you can feel good about yourself.
Or you could do that by default while very selectively supporting specific artists. That way you can both stay within your means and exercise moral discretion over who you support.

Harry Potter fans tripping over themselves to give Joanne more money while saying “well, she has some bad opinions, BUT…”

That’s why I pirate all media I engage in. That way I never support horrible people.
