"I won't purchase/support anything new, but I can enjoy what I already own." Yep, same here. My relationship to that artist is changed. My relationship to the prior art is too, but not to same degree. | |||

"I think there's a line in what you're willing to accept or forget. I do find that once that line is crossed, then I can't enjoy their art without thinking of what they did. " Ok, that may actually be a lie as I still watch WWE despite Vince McMahon's actions but I justify that as he's not there anymore | |||

"It’s a great question. Ferdinand Porsche was a nazi. So was Hugo Boss. Yet people admire and want their art. Even the very people they in their own time, believed should be destroyed. " Is there a timescale when someone is admonished from their actions? Most(a lot) of established brands have a pretty dubious history. | |||

Does time and distance change that perception of person and their art? Can the artist villain be rehabilitated through their art? | |||

"ehhh not really, I don't have an issue separating the art from the artist. Much less so a film too, writing off hundreds of people's work because of one person is a bit dense." Yeah, me too. I think very little of Graham Linehan for example, but still enjoy watching Father Ted and the others. | |||

"It’s a great question. Ferdinand Porsche was a nazi. So was Hugo Boss. Yet people admire and want their art. Even the very people they in their own time, believed should be destroyed. A conundrum indeed. I think people just have short memories. Or maybe it's just more convenient to just forget? Life is short. It's not a great precedent to set though. Is there a timescale when someone is admonished from their actions? Most(a lot) of established brands have a pretty dubious history. My point exactly. Does time and distance change that perception of person and their art? Can the artist villain be rehabilitated through their art? " | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." I won't purchase/support anything new, but I can enjoy what I already own. I believe that art is a dialect between what exists and those consuming them. (I also try not to do things that financially support crappy people) | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." I think she's a nob head but I'll watch the films | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." Never read a book or hers or even seen a screen adaptation. So to me she's just the absolute shite that she tweets. | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." The books are garbage, the movies I have fond memories of watching with my kids. She's a bit a knobhead. | |||

Watching someone attempt a promo with zero crowd reaction because there’s literally no crowd is painful viewing 😅 | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." Never read in of her books or watched a film. I really need to look into why she has an axe to grind because it seems pretty acute. | |||

"I won’t listen to Lost Prophets anymore, so I guess the answer is yes. But then again I am a hypocrite because I’ll happily listen to Elvis " Unless I’ve missed something here, they’re hardly in the same league. | |||

"JK Rowling - Discuss." Not a Potter fan, have no real interest in what she has to say. Have no feelings about her what so ever to be honest. | |||
