Would you listen to Charles Manson's music if it was really good? Would you read books written by Jeffrey Dahmer if they were top of the line? Would you watch a movie that is epic by every standard if you knew it was directed by Adolf hitler?
My guess is that most of you are saying no. So what happens when the truth comes out? What happens if we learn that George Lucas raped children? Would anyone express Star Wars enthusiasm?
What if we learn Stephen King tortured children and forced them to experience horror? Could anyone other than a serious sadist enjoy to read any of his books again?
What if videos of Mick Jagger performing child sacrifices emerge? Could anyone ever rock to his music ever again?
I think we are in the verge of horrible crimes being exposed. Artists have lost all their fans for much less in the past. So after that happens, what remains of American or actually world culture?
Will people try to overlook the crimes committed and continue to cherish the artistic contributions of these monsters?
Heck...I'm just talking about worthless entertainers. Now add beloved historical figures. Wow!
Your thoughts?
Most big culture defining franchises are already being torn apart by woke DEI hires (Disney, Marvel, Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, etc.)
I say let the celebrity media die.
The Internet has more than enough worthy replacements for them by now:
In ye olden days, actors were considered to be on the same level as degenerates, gypsies, and people who commit adultery. People of questionable morality who lied for a living.
They were NOT people with whom you associated, much less let your children associate with.
Looks like those beliefs were not only justified, but dead on accurate for most of Hollywood.
I wouldn't mind a return to something of that level. Obviously it isn't everyone, and I'm sure there are some who wanted to be a positive force for change, but when it is so corrupt and morally bankrupt, you almost have to burn it down and start over...
OK, was I talking about Hollywood or the federal government?
At this point, probably both...
I have been totally sucked into the dude who does Evel Knievel jumps with the famous toy. Check it out. Hours of entertainment, and the music is superb:

It's FB, but that's the easiest place to scroll through short reels. Great camerawork, too... helmet cam on some of them.
