This seems like the tail wagging the dog. Animals, and therefore animal symbols, are inherently beautiful and are very engaging to children (and adults!). Just because some evil force has co-opted some of that symbolism shouldn't mean we cut it out of our lives! That would be like saying, "I'm no longer eating food because all the evil people eat food so it must be bad".
I'm not telling anyone else what to do. But this is my personal decision, on a surface level or deep level, certain things have certain connotations. When people look at me I do not want to be subconsciously associated with the likes of cardi b, that's my preference...
