    the reason people actually get upset about their favorite artist being an asshole is that resonate with the shape of a creator's mind when you appreciate their work and then bam it turns out that that person wasnt who you thought they were and its both betrayal and revulsion

        i dont think you can I think you have to just reckon with the fact that someone who has created something that makes you feel seen and understood is also someone who can be monstrous in other wayspic.twitter.com/Xu5TbaRy3g

        I think there's an important (albeit not clean) distinction between "this author was a truly monstrous person" and "this author had beliefs resembling my outgroup"

        why is this the way people react rather than having it humanize people whose beliefs they abhor. because it happens in the wrong order?

        I love Cixin Liu’s work, the man is a visionary author, even while I think his views on the uighurs are backwards and wrong. You have to separate the artist from their work

        The word "dividuation" has been popping into my head about this sort of thing. The author is not a monolith, and you don't have to take everything that they are along with their work. My most personally salient example of this is Orson Scott Card.

        There's some of that, but in some cases it's also a mix of illiberalism and lack of imagination: many, many people, as I've learnt in the past five years, have trouble believing that someone could be worth listening to if they check even one box of wrongthink

        I don’t really feel understood by Wagner. His mental illness is totally different from mine, and he put way more effort into being antisemitic than I’m putting into anything in my life.https://youtu.be/SRmCEGHt-Qk
