There was due process, testimony in court and convictions.

Intellectually, I agree with you. And yet, I haven't read any Orson Scott Card yet. I don't look down on his fans. But there's enough good reading out there for me to want to give Card my money.
H. P. Lovecraft was an out and out racist. So I would guess you won't be reading any of his books and anyone else's books based in Lovecraft's work.

Henry Ford was a major anti-Semite. He even took out full page newspaper ads against Jews.

The statue of Edward Colston was taken down in the protests because he was a slave trader. But he used the money he made to do a lot of good for Bristol.

There are a lot of bad people who do good work. So how do you separate the person from the work?
