What's wrong with people learning from history, be that what was bad and what was good? Again, I will accept it was not explained in the best way, and I was trying to pose the idea of if we are leaning to not repeat bad things from the flaws of an otherwise okay person; why not learn about the good things (again the hypothetical of IF the people defending Austrian Artist are right) from an otherwise awful person (even if those good things came as purely by accident). It was purely a theory related to what was being talked about here. Is that what the issue is? if not, is it just the discussion of it? I'm still not clear about what is wrong, as I wasn't the first to bring up the person. Again, I will admit it was poorly worded and thought out, but the main point was that, if we are reflecting on not repeating bad qualities from one person, why not try for the reverse? In the end I did agree that everyone is entitled to their choice, there's nothing wrong with that bit.</p></blockquote><p></p>
