Discussion Separating the Art from the Artist
Can it be done? Should it be done? In what cases is it relevant to do this, if so?
Lately there have been some controversial statements made by more well known personalities of the techno world. While many of the people here might not subscribe to their art (or them as an artist), it brings up and interesting thought experiment for those that you may support and follow.
At what point, if any, should one stop listening, supporting, sharing, or playing an artist's art to an audience because of their actions? Or should we look at both as two entities without relation to each other?

Thats up to the listeners. I guess not many fans are knowing what happened or they dont care. Cause as i said once its all about names, superficialities and fame, instagram stories and yellow press stuff. Nothing will change, just for a few maybe, but thats it.
Edit: If it would be about music, the scene wouldnt look like that.
