Re: When Creators Do Bad Things

[(Anonymous)]

I start avoiding their stuff and avoiding gossip about them and just kind of push them out of my mind. They don't exist to me anymore.

I don't buy a lot of media to begin with (I have cable and go to the library, so that takes care of movies, TV, and books, and I'm a weirdo who owns almost no music) so there's a good chance I don't actually own anything with the person's name on it.

If I felt I needed to get rid of something I owned because it involved someone evil, I'd probably just give it away/donate it and not ritually destroy it or anything. I feel like that would be a waste and dumping stuff in a landfill doesn't harm the evil person, it just harms the environment (although if it's a paperback book, I might toss it in the recycling, since books feel like less of a collaborative effort that movies - event though producing them obviously does involve multiple people.)

Like others have said, whether I bother doing anything, including just not consuming their stuff, really depends on what they did. Assault and battery and abuse, mistreatment of kids or animals, and blatant racism, sexism, or homophobia are usually deal-breakers (although I don't believe everything is unforgivable - I think bigots can change, for example). On the other hand, say what you will about Martha Stewart, but I've never been able to give a shit about the stock trading thing, especially since it sounds like she wasn't trying to be shady, and she did go to jail for it, so she didn't get away with anything. She broke the law, but I'm not going to stop watching her cooking shows over something like that.
