There are issues when the artist puts their problematic views into the media, but people were previously not paying attention. Harry Potter is a good example. Most people didn’t really read too much into a children book series, but when JK started talking politics, people started looking more into the subtext of her books and realized all the libertarian politics in them. I personally bailed around book 4 or so because they were annoying me and now I understand why.
Xi liked Harry Potter, but even xi can see the slavery defence was weird. Xi always wondered why the good guys never tried fixing the socioeconomic problems that made the goblins and giants support Voldemort.
