You can't separate art from the artist (lemmygrad.ml)

If you don't like X but like X's work, there's a good chance X's views and politics are in said work. For example, I occasionally watch Act Man videos mostly to figure out what is going on with gaming and how it got ruined (not killed), but as you can probably guess he is a well-known anti-SJW chud and I have actually seen his politics in some of his videos like his infamous Feminists and SJWs vs video games. Another YouTuber I watch often called ThunderStruck115 is a lib given in videos with sections where he does talk abt politics (keep in mind he mostly makes response videos to usually bad takes in video games) it's pretty much enlightened centrist.

Another example is Call of Duty. You may like the gameplay and experience but the politics are still there. It still whitewashes the West including it's subjugation of the third world. Side note: This isn't to say gameplay shouldn't be ignored, it should take precedence over everything else including politics.

You can separate the art from the artist.

That which can be claimed without argument can be dismissed without argument.
