Clearly we can, and should, enjoy sports, art, music, etc., irrespective of the politics of those involved. That said, when someone shoves their politics in our face, I feel entitled to dismiss their art, especially when I find those politics repugnant, as I do those of Nugent. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I like Pink Floyd. If we go individual by individual this will destroy the rest of my day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Or is it only OK to like someone who spews views on different subjects that you like regardless of what others think of said views? If I didn't seperate the artist from their world view I'd probaby sell all my gear as it would never be used. I'd also quit watching all sporting events. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you feel an artists views are repugnant you can't believe others may like their art. That's where we started right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 To be clear, I don’t ascribe Ted’s politics to you or anyone else who likes his music. My problems with Ted are that he is so eager to push his politics, which he has every right to do, and I never liked his music. That makes me feel entitled to dismiss his, IMO, mediocre talent, while rejecting his positions on race, women and gun control. Don’t get me started regarding his driving record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 So what if you really liked his music and everything else was the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Carl, You have every right to like Nugent, his music and his views. I was somewhat facetiously suggesting that I don’t want to believe that you agree with 100% of his, IMO, repugnant views. If you do, which you have every right to do, please don’t burst my bubble. I like you without any concern for your politics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would continue to like and enjoy the music, but the hypothetical is stopped in its tracks by the fact that I could go to my grave without hearing another note from Terrible Ted and not feel like I’d missed a thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
