"actually his stuff was very Derivative and not Original" like, you don't have to do this. it is good for us all to sit with the cognitive dissonance that a very bad person can make very good art. it is good for us to work through the moral ramifications of that.

one thing that would be cool, when prominent creators turn out to be terrible people, would be if we didn't have to go through this performative dance of insisting that their work was never good in the first place.

Still can't believe the latest Epstein Files release just casually confirmed the anti-SJW movement was planned by pedophiles.
"The entire reactionary anti-woke backlash was masterminded by child traffickers" is the kinda shit I'd say as hyperbolic agitprop, but it was true the whole time.

I can't believe Elon Musk called me a groomer and made me lose my job, all the while he'd begged Epstein to let him rape children.

Okay Doctor Who fans, how long do we think the Wish World in Wish World lasted? Obviously May 23rd repeated itself over and over... but how much time cumulatively did everyone spend in it during that reality?
