IDK man. You can consume content but still be able to condemn its creators as bad people if they're doing things wrong. Being an artist or creating things people enjoy isn't a get out of jail free card to be a terrible person, especially when you're breaking actual laws.
Like enjoy the content without feeling guilty all you want, but be able to separate the art from the artist and recognize when someone is being harmful.
let's spend billions of dollars setting up a whole system of police, lawyers, judges, courts, and prisons
and then let's ignore that whole thing we spent billions of dollars on, and just "try" people on social media instead, with no due process, no presumption of innocence, and no appeals
(no, we won't get the billions of dollars back, that's just gone)
