Evan Ortiz
Yes. Seriously. Stop this meme.
Benjamin Bailey
This is a meme? I was just trying to see what other people think because I believe that this a topic that's quite debatable.
Jose Johnson
yes but lostprophets have always been absolute shit
Kevin Sanchez
It was never okay to like Lostprophets.

It's only internally debatable, are YOU ok with it? You can do whatever you want.
On one hand, worrying about everything an artist does (or anyone providing anything really) will leave you with nothing. You're always going to find something abhorrent if you dig deep enough. On the other hand, being attached to a band and suddenly discovering it was led by a child molester can make it impossible for some people to ever enjoy their work again. Either way it's up to you.

isn't an issue for me at all, but it affects how much I support the artist or say I like them to friends

Do your own thesis. Use your own thoughts.
