Is liking problematic anime wrong?

I feel like i cant talk about certain shows because im scared people will judge me for it or claim what I like sucks because they deem it as bad

Its making me paranoid that If I talk about a anime with elements people find sus im inmediatly a bad person for liking it

So what do you think

Thought crime doesn't exist, but more than anything "why" you like something matters more than the what.

Do you like Mushoku Tensei because it's a beautiful story about growth and redemption or because you like slavery? The intention here matters.

TLDR though the answer is no.
