DA

Those "personal lines" are often shitty, though. You're forgetting how many entertainers went around pretending not to be gay because they thought (rightly) that audiences would punish them if it became common knowledge. The fact that you have the ability to make it harder for someone to make ends meet because you disapprove of how they live their life does not make that an ethical thing to try to do to them. At all.

One person not consuming old media someone made by someone they hate is not going to hurt their ability to make a living lmao and that's not the point anyway. It's not about trying to hurt the person, it's about genuinely being unable to enjoy what they've made anymore.

Maybe that's your point. But most of the time when I see people going on about staying away from some actor or thing, it's because they think the bad person needs to be punished. Not because they're choosing to re-watch this old movie instead of that old movie because what they know about the people who made the movie pains them.

I recently learned that Judith Barsi, who voiced Ducky in The Land Before Time and Anne-Marie in All Dogs Go To Heaven, was ten years old when her alcoholic father brutally murdered her. If it were simply that people who have strong feelings about what they know happened behind the cameras share "I can't rewatch this" with each other in fandom, I think we'd have more attention paid to situations like that, instead of a perpetual spotlight on arts-related people we're currently being incited to blame for bad behavior.
