Why should we seperate the art from the artist?

If the artist never took time to seperate themselves from wicked stances?

This includes authors, painters, singers..etc

More importantly, what does separating the art from the artist mean to you?

I think there are instances where this belief creates an opportunity to still push their stances by being offered a platform and attention.

Yes. People talk about "cancelling" but if your views are boneheaded and anathema-tic to the good order of society, you should be "cancelled".

@Longpatrol

Being nice towards cruelty and catering to it is an act of cruelty. One of many situations lot of people seem to he confused about. They also want to be liked.
