If I stopped liking everything made by someone that was a douche to a significant degree, half of all music made in the last seventy years would be gone. A good ten + percent of literature would be. And movies would be right out the window because you can’t make a movie without a dozen or more people being involved in the core creation process, and there’s always going to be one douche in the mix.

Idgaf. Van gogh was a stalker, and he’s still one of the most amazing painters ever.

If I hate the living artist enough to not be willing to pay them for their work, that’s why living in the digital piracy era is so awesome. You don’t have to go hunt down remaindered books, you don’t have to dub tapes or whatever. I’m one of the rare writers that doesn’t object to piracy of my own stuff to begin with, so I have zero compunction about it for anything else.
