I'm of the slightly unpopular belief that an artists art can be enjoyed regardless of the monstrosity of their person.
If one accepts that cooking can be considered an art, then it doesn't matter how atrocious the artist is, all that matters is the quality of the product.
For example; I love Lou Reed's music. It was meaningful to me as I was growing up, and I think it's masterful in the use of lyrical symbolism and the music is great. Berlin is one of my favorite albums of all time.
But Lou Reed was a self-hating, woman beating half-a-fag kike drug addict. I can decry the person, but not the product.
Salvador Dali was a fascist and a borderline psychotic, I love his fucking art.
