    I’m not a huge fan of cancel culture either, but I’ve not paid a cent to any artists’ work that I love in my whole life, so I feel I can justify my position by holding up my hands and saying “hey, I don’t fund their lifestyle. Never have, never will.”

      I doubt this. Have you ever consumed any form of media? Did you pay for it? Movies, games, television, music, nothing?

      Well, if you actually ever support someone, and they appear to be a bad person, you should know you paid them for their art style adding to not knowing they were a bad person, so you’re not actually guilty. Also, even that person deserves a possibility to become better and start over, and thus, they shouldn’t be cancelled. That’s what we both know, am I right?
