Fun post. But I do want to say one thing. “I can separate the art from the artist” is an intellectually lazy way to dismiss your complicit behavior. I won’t do it.

Just say you have no empathy for people harmed by your fave entertainer and just listen to your music in peace. Preferably, on mute. lol.

FlipboardFlipboard Culture Desk (@CultureDesk@flipboard.social)"Meat is Murder," the second record by the Smiths, was released 40 years ago yesterday. Tiernan Cannon became a fan of the band long after it became obvious that lead singer Morrissey is a bad egg, "a battle-hardened culture warrior of the right wing, a man whose political views have slipped far beyond the point of contrarianism into straight-up chauvinism." The problem, says Cannon, writing for @PasteMagazine@flipboard.com, is that Morrissey — back in the day, at least — was also an exquisite songwriter, capable of eliciting empathy, calling for compassion, taking the side of the underdog. Here's Cannon's story on what to do when the artist is a genius, but the human being is "pathetically, tragically flawed." What's your perspective — can you separate the art from the artist? https://flip.it/35lF_g #Music #TheSmiths #Morrissey #Entertainment #MeatIsMurder #Poll [ ] I can't enjoy art made by a bad person [ ] I can separate the two [ ] Something else — explain in the comments.

If anyone knows any artists doing good covers of the Morrisey's & the Smith's music please reply here or post to me on my account. I like a lot of the tunes Morrissey sings on but the listening to him gives me the s***s.
