I personally don’t because I view giving any kind of support as subsidising their problematic views.

yes, you're suppose to do that.

that's why it's virtue signalling. you are supposed to signal to your newfound virtue by going through a public denunciation of what you once enjoyed, and you can take it further by declaring how BETRAYED you are by this and how you are retroactively full of guilty and shame for ever having enjoyed their work.

The problem is your a well-adjusted person who doesn't tons of free time to agonize over ranking your moral purity compared to strangers on the internet and post about it on social media, as well as going around harassing others who don't agree with you. Everyone knows 'good' people must go around virtually burning the heretics. And the 'bad' people are the ones who just enjoy their lives without a compulsion to agonizing about everyone's moral standing compared to their own.
