I just think it's funny when people give an artist so much credit for the messages they infer of their own accord from the art. If her art is ambiguous in its message then it is silly to like her because she is saying a particular thing when you, yourself, have decided what that thing is.
Similarly, others may choose to dislike her because they interpret her art as sending a different message.

All in all, if she has something important to say, she's certainly doing a terrible job of it. i think it's ok to dislike her for that. It isn't ok, however, to like her (or dislike her) for saying something she has never explicitly said.

I dislike her for her irresponsible messages of materialism which are extremely explicit in her art.
