Ophelium: I know this is probably not the best place to ask this question, but there a few people here whose opinion I do respect. I recently found out that a YouTube creator I've really enjoyed the work of supports beliefs that I ardently oppose as those beliefs may reasonably affect me. While his work has not yet reflected these beliefs (he's been on a long hiatus), can you divorce your personal opinion of the creator from his/her work?
Good question and I will try to answer it best way I can and it just presents my opinion:
Are those beliefs not automatically (maybe just subconsciously) part of their work? Does he might have included part of his belief (in a critical way) included in his (her) work?
And on the other hand, if the work was not influenced by his beliefs, why does it bother you (as you stated)? If he separates those two shall you also not be able to separate his WORK from his BELIEFS?
Using your words here: If he was able to do so, shall you not to be able to do so as well? Is this not showing tolerance? If he showed tolerance can you not do the same?
I know a lot of questions for YOU ;), but only you can really answer them really ;)
A wee bit offtopic, only because the gruel happened in WWII, can we not enjoy the artwork of games playing during this dark episode? (I know not the best comparison, but the best off I could think off in the moment)
