To be serious for a moment, you simply cannot live your life only consuming media that satisfies your own high standards of morality, and if you think you can you clearly have nothing but a base level of media understanding, because that isn’t how the world or art works. If you go through life rejecting pieces of art because you disagree with the artist’s personal life, conventions of the time or god forbid, simply because it doesn’t match up to what makes you feel comfortable then I truly do pity you?? Sometimes you do read a book or play a game or read a criticism of something and think “huh. That’s not right.” - but if you put it down there and then you’ll never learn how to understand why those things were there in the first place, and you’ll end up trapped in the same vicious cycle of confusion and discomfort. Yes, media and art should be criticised and held under a microscope and analysed to hell and back, but a refusal to even engage on a base level with anything that fits outside your political views or frame of reference is ridiculous.
