I don’t care. I’m not going to the trouble to only listen to music made by small l libertarians. My playlist would be really short.

You are missing the point. It is not a question of finding entertainers with whom you are in lockstep agreement. It is whether or not you will support a known enemy with your dollars.

For example, I don't require that singers or other entertainers say publicly that they are pro-life. If they are pro-abortion, I don't care--as long as they "shut up and sing," and don't spew their leftist tripe. If a performer is outspokenly pro-abortion and I know it, I become unable to enjoy their work, partly because by buying their work, I will be indirectly supporting a cause I find amoral.

Of course, if one were a moderate and not a conservative, I could see that there might not be any particular viewpoint, left or right, that would be considered offensive.

Ok, now I’m not a conservative because of the music I listen to. Discussion over. Have a good weekend.
