FWIW,

wp:Lemmy

Lemmy collected German military regalia; he had an Iron Cross emblazoned on his bass, which led to accusations of Nazi sympathies. He stated that he collected Nazi memorabilia because he liked the way it looked, and he considered himself an anarchist.[33][34] He spoke against racism many times.[35][36][37][38] Lemmy said he was against religion, government, and established authority.[39][40] In 2011, he identified as agnostic, saying: "I can find out when I die. I can wait. I'm not in a hurry."[41] Jeff Hanneman, the founder of the thrash metal band Slayer, befriended Lemmy due to their shared fondness for collecting Nazi memorabilia.[42] According to Keith Emerson's autobiography, Pictures of an Exhibitionist (2004), Lemmy gave him two of his Hitler Youth knives during his time as a roadie for the Nice. Emerson used these knives many times as keyholders when playing the Hammond organ during concerts with the Nice and Emerson, Lake & Palmer before destroying them. Lemmy defended his collection by saying that if his then-girlfriend (who was black) had no problem with it, nobody else should.[40]

Are you saying he was a piece of shit purely because he collected memorabilia, or were there other reasons? I know of no reason to say he was a bad human being.
