Depends on how dead they are for me, honestly
If the artist in question is actively campaigning and spending their wealth to support the things I oppose that’s not great, but if they’re dead then it’s a lot easier to justify, since they’re not capable of hurting people, unless whoever owns the rights holds the same opinions
There’s also willful ignorance where if you like an artist’s work in a genre known for having problematic artists you simply choose to not look into them, so you don’t have to deal with the moral implications, which I admittedly am somewhat guilty of for music
