I get where you’re coming from - it’s like people being outraged about the vulgar language Trump used when he said “grab em by the pussy” when what they should be focusing on is the whole “sexual assault aspect”. While legally dubious, the real issue here is the power differential between a fan and the artist they…

You are hardly alone in the Rent headshaking Lindsey Ellis says it better than I ever could.
