Or you could do that by default while very selectively supporting specific artists. That way you can both stay within your means and exercise moral discretion over who you support.
You can’t take back what’s already been given, so you just learn and move on. Whether to keep their art or throw it out is your choice, just don’t support them in the future.
For example, I own a painting by Salvador Dali. Salvador Dali - if you don’t know - is a fascist. I inherited the painting, and even the previous owner likely purchased the painting after Salvador Dali was dead. My owning the painting does not support Salvador Dali in any way, and the painting has nothing to do with his fascist views. Most people would not recognize that it is a Salvador Dali painting and even fewer would know about his political leanings. It doesn’t bother me to hang the painting on my wall, and in the right context and company it can even make a good conversation piece.
That’s why I pirate all media I engage in. That way I never support horrible people.

But what if the artist I choose to support turns out to be a creep later on? Do I keep the bought media or throw it out?

Lol that is NOT why you pirate everything
You must be psychic.
Yeah, it’s better to just not support anything, good or bad.
Yes. Widespread nihilism certainly will not have any negative consequences
