              A lot of people believe that if an artists turns out to be a bad person, you should not consume their art.

              Imo boycotting makes sense but any work of art should be able to be enjoyed regardless of where it came from.

                That wasn’t the joke I was making though. My joke was that Trump was considering making a serial rapists his VP pick. I don’t disagree with the point you’re making I’m just confused as to why you think it’s relevant.

                    I think if an artist ruins their public image/career, whoever views their art should have the option to pick a charity of their choice for whatever royalties that artist gets.

      I like how they have a painting of ol’ Ronnie Raygun on one side of the wall with Putin on the other. If only he was alive to see them now.
