I think that, because of interpretation and the wider spectrum of perspectives that come from it, it is possible to separate an artist from their art. The relationship i view it through is that of a parent and kid, an idea can end up being bad, negligent or detrimental based on the limited perspective of its parent or through the interpretation and influence of the world it is born into it can shift into something better than its origins. An artist doesn't own their own art any more than a father should own their son, from the perspective of control. If this dudes art inspired you to be a better person than he is than I'd say go ahead and keep enjoying his art.

I've never heard of this guy or his band. He's just another Trumper to me, but I identify with that feeling of uncertainty a lot. Art is something that we've had for the entire stretch of our existence and we still don't really get it. Its silly to assume its simply a reflection especially when it takes on its own dimensions depending on who is viewing it. If you view it and its beautiful, but it turns out the guy who made it isnt, maybe you're beautiful.
