I wanna listen to a particular song by an artist who has recently turned pretty nazi. As I generally use Spotify I now refuse to listen to his music in there, esp as it generates earnings. I kinda wanna pirate the music somehow…I’m not gonna as I’m not gonna down a song or two and then store it on my phone like it’s the year 2000. But short story is this me justifying piracy to myself.
Honestly there’s so much wonderful art out there not created by Nazis, I don’t know that it’s worth the energy to pirate Nazi music.
I totally understand the moral pirate argument, I just don’t have time to enjoy all of the games, movies, and music from artists I support. To waste what time I have engaging with content from people I find morally repugnant is just not where I’m investing
I totally agree. I just mentioned RKelly and MJ. I have had to stop listening. As time goes by more comes to light and I lose some good tunes.
Use it as an opportunity to find new music and fill those playlists out with a little more variety
Same goes for sexual abusers too.
Doesn’t matter how good that first Lostprophets album is, I just can’t listen to it knowing what Watkins got up to, so I’ll listen to music by people who didn’t fuck a literal baby.
