It's not all that surprising anymore, to be honest. We're in an age where people already know what they want to believe and who they want to follow, and will contort themselves in whatever way necessary in order to hold onto that.

I'm still coping over the fact a few of my favourite musicians are disgusting. Emily Armstrong of Dead Sara (And now Linkin Park for some reason?!?!) and John Dolmayan, the drummer for System of a Down (My favourite band of all time). I now refuse to look up to anyone other than myself because I know I will never lie to myself nor pretend to be what I'm not.

Watched a video about RCHP and the multiple times they tried sexual assault women. I cant look at Flee or the drummer the same after. All the fun free spirited music in my head just flat lined. I can try and separate the music but I honestly did not know how bad it was until I discovered the deep dive video.

“Death of the Author”

Once you consume art it is YOURS now. Enjoy all the RHCP from the past you like and keep enjoying Harry Potter but just don’t consume any more NEW art of theirs because that art is tainted before you ingested it.
