I personally don’t because I view giving any kind of support as subsidising their problematic views.

I do because contiuing to enjoy something that wasn't problematic by itself doesn't suddenly continue supporting the artist by re-reading/re-watching/re-listening to the copy you already own, nor does destroying it take what you already paid back.
