EDIT : To be clear, I am not saying "his musical output is caused by/limited by/due to" his insanity. I mean his mental illness makes his productivity less efficient to the point where there is less output.

So if he's being affected by mental health, it doesn't matter if it's his music or his kid's music, neither is getting completed because he's not going to get anything done, because mental health problems will impede his productivity.

Lots of bipolar people manages to live their lives without ever becoming nazis and supporting Trump though.

You are really doing a disservice to bipolar people by using his illness as an explanation of him being a massive asshole.

The thing is that the BDS movement specifically asked for a cultural and academic boycott of Israel as well. The same thing happened with Apartheid-era South Africa.

I could understand his point in isolation, but there’s a larger social context here. Israelis (and Palestinians) don’t, I think, need awareness raised, they already know what’s going on there.

I kind of get it though, in my experience prejudices die by exposure, they flourish in the dark. I don't see how an artistic performance boycott does anything but further close them off to other points of view.
