It's just virtue signaling to turn down a friendly offer for free art because... what is it exactly? You don't like that he once played Alex Jones out loud in the shop as far as you are aware? Lame.

But maybe he wants to vote with his money. Maybe, rather than get a free tat from an InfoWars fan, he wants to pay money to a tat parlor that plays the Young Turks or something. That doesn't make much sense to me, but if you take politics that seriously, more power to ya.

I've dealt with enough Alex Jones supporters in my area to never want to be around any of them. They're all a bunch of abusive *******s who scream other people down with their crazy. I just hate the guy, it's not so much"my morals are superior" thing for me, I just can't stand people who think like that. I'm still friends with the artist (they hate Alex Jones too) I just don't want to be subjected to crazy conspiracy bull**** even on the off chance.
