The screenshot is a post by a friend, who prefers to remain anonymous, from several years ago. It's horribly relevant again, for obvious reasons.
I'd prefer to know, on the whole. Particularly when the artist in question is still alive: I may (or may not) still be able to enjoy their art that I already have, but I want to know whose pockets to avoid lining. Once they're dead, "separate the art from the artist" becomes a lot easier for me.
Of course I'd far rather there were nothing *to* know. I wish with all my heart that Edgar Rice #Burroughs and HP #Lovecraft were not raging racists, that Marion Zimmer #Bradley were not at the very least an enabler of child molestation and perhaps† a molester herself, that Joss #Whedon were a feminist in deed as well as word, that JK #Rowling believed the messages about equality and inclusion she gave a whole generation of children and their parents, that Neil #Gaiman were a kind and decent person who created mythologies to tell thoughtful stories about the human condition. But since they are what they are and were what they were, that's not an option.
There are writers I still regard as role models *as writers* even if I don't care for them much as people. Not monsters, for the most part, just garden-variety jerks. The way they put words together speaks to me, as I want my words to speak to my readers. I'm not in a hurry to give up what they've taught me by example.
Still. I don't have a whole lot of money to spend, and I'd rather that what I do have go to people I don't despise. Knowing is almost always better.

CW: Lo de Gaiman
@Shine_McShine @PixelRobot @noeizumi
De todas maneras también quisiera hacer un llamamiento a una pequeña reflexión dejando la siguiente pregunta ¿Hubieron alternativas menos nefastas a Neruda en su tiempo?
A medida que avanzamos en el descubrimiento de la historia y a medida que cuestionamos muchas cosas surge la revelación que sí, puede que Neruda haya sido un gran poeta ¿Pero era el único grande o es que en realidad fue el único de los grandes de su tiempo que tuvo la fortuna de ser reconocido? ¿Y por qué ocurrió eso?
Separar al autore de la obra es algo que se puede hacer pero también está bueno reconocer que muchos llegaron a la grandeza no solo por su genio creativo sino porque además respondían a ciertos dictámenes de su propia época, por lo cual se debe entender que la grandeza de Neruda no solo está condicionada a la calidad de su obra sino a otros factores también.
En #latinoamerica, o al menos yo acá en #argentina, en mis tiempos crecí con la enseñanza de los grandes autores y escritores, todos hombres, todos genios y obviamente todos terribles personas (algunos mejores y otros peores). Pero ahora sale al descubierto que hubieron otres grandes autores, principalmente mujeres, de gran genio y que por sus diferentes condiciones no llegaron a la grandeza (para sorpresa de nadie) no por la la falta calidad en sus obras sino por cosas totalmente ajenas a eso.
Por lo cual separar al autor de la obra se puede, haciendolo con consciencia y criterio, pero también invito a la búsqueda de alternativas y nuevas opciones ya que muchas veces la grandeza de ciertas obras queda condicionada por el propio alcance de los privilegios de quien las crea.
#Neruda no era el único, y #Gaiman tampoco es el único.
O al menos así lo veo yo.

A quotation from #Gaiman, Neil:
«
Some years ago, I was lucky enough invited to a gathering of great and good people: artists and scientists, writers and discoverers of things. And I felt that at any moment they would realise that I didn’t qualify to be there, among these people who had really done things. On my second or…

A quotation from #Gaiman, Neil:
«
It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor.
