With the rise of cancel culture, it’s something that’s got me curious, why are so many works (music, literature, tv shows, etc.) no longer separated from their controversial makers? Is it purely to do with money (e.g. not wanting to give money to people you don’t agree with?) and what about controversial people who are dead? They don’t gain anything, so why isn’t the art separated from the artist? What’s your opinion on this topic?

    You don’t know my life, my hardships etc. don’t pretend you do.

    You thinking that’s what I’m doing is why I’m saying what I’m saying.

    You haven’t yet matured to the point where you understand not everything everyone else says and does is about you. Other people live rich, detailed lives that are completely unlike your own and you will never understand the huge varieties of ways the world works until you get outside your own tiny, self-centered universe.

        It’s cute that you think you’re being judged, kiddo.

        Give it a couple decades. Maybe with experience, you’ll understand the old saying that youth is wasted on the young.
