As I said earlier, if you cherrypick in the Arts you have to ignore just about everything. I’m supposed to not watch Spielberg’s or Spike Lee’s films because of their politics? Those things are a big part of American culture.

I only boycott/ignore those who are truly obnoxious when they talk politics. Like Julia Roberts saying at some event something about finding “Republican” in the dictionary between “reptile” and “repugnant.” Also, the fugly Maggie Gyllenhaal, who was desperate to sound smart and said some crap about how we somehow “deserved” 9/11. Sean Penn — no explanation necessary.

But if a performer is just a Dem and doesn’t trash the country (or even Repubs), then it doesn’t affect my viewing decisions.

Spike Lee is a bigot. Support him if you want. Support Lord Haw Haw’s family too if you like. But they are still rotten people selling rotten messages.
