I think it's reasonable to draw some lines that, when crossed, you'll choose to disengage from their art.
The musician doesn't have to be a saint. But if I find out they, I don't know, love eating live puppies, I'm going to prefer spending my time and attention elsewhere.
I agree, but I like to start from a position of "this person probably sucks" because then I'm never disappointed.
This is a fair position to take.
I tend to avoid listening to interviews with bands I like in case they're terrible.
Though weirdly I'll chat with folks at merch tables.
