With all the hate towards J.K Rowling (deserved) and lets say Kanye West for example, you can enjoy the art but can you really separate what they create from what they say?

I disagree with this part. People are extremely complex and not even internally consistent with themselves. I don’t think it’s a given that any and all bad qualities they possess are necessarily going to be present in art they create.
I agree that it doesn’t always seep through. That said, I think you need to be extra vigilant when experiencing art produced by someone like Rowling. That bias may appear in unexpected ways and they shouldn’t be given the benefit of the doubt.
