I can separate the person from their art. I mean, would it really hurt James Woods if I refused to watch Hercules or Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths ever again just because he voices the villains for those two animated films? You can boycott their new work moving forward, but refusing to watch stuff that they made years ago is really just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Watching television is not an activity.

We talked about this earlier today.
You misread my post, and accused me of gaslighting. Then you doubled down on it.
Here's the chain. It started with Revolutionary Jack (the portion you quoted of his comment is in bold)....

Really shocking stuff.
It is. I've visited the Capitol last time it was in DC (which happens to be, legitimately, one of my favorite cities, not only DC-Proper but the greater metropolitan area).One suspect taken into custody had a full map of the building with access points not meant to be public knowledge. Hmm... it's almost like it was an inside job.
Also visited some of the places at the Hill these terrorists rampaged through (not wholly of course because I was more interested in visiting the Library of Congress then seeing McConnell's Senate in action).
The thing is the Capitol complex is really really big, and complex and confusing. The floorplan that's open to the public isn't helpful...as they say, "the map is not the territory".
Navigating and locating specific offices, and it does seem from reports that Dem offices were raided more than GOP offices. I haven't heard a single story of GOP senators and reps having documents, laptops, and iPads stolen from them. If there are any please enlighten me, it's possible there are. Clyburn's work-office out-of-the-way with his laptop rather than his ceremonial office was raided, Nancy Pelosi of course was openly targeted for assassination (it's obvious that protestors from destroying her engraving, stealing her lectern and so on were specifically targeting her for execution). This is a sack motivated to target one party more than another. The only high profile Republican targeted is of course Mike Pence but other than Pence, it seems the rest were written off as collateral damage if it came to that, but incidental.
Yeah Schwarzenegger is still great compared to Trump, but Trump has lowered the bar so much Satan could now use it to exercise daily.
The final lines of the novel Madame Bovary has this phrase, "The devil himself does not have a better practice." It's referring to a character who in the book embodies the mendacity, hypocrisy, bad faith, and populism of the newly emerging middle-class and their consumerist tendencies.
I think Trump is significantly worse than the devil. The devil is ultimately "bad cop" to God, there to keep you on the straight and narrow...but Trump is basically Nyarlathotep, who basically wants to corrupt stuff just coz. Trump corrupts the already bad and degraded into even worse people, he taints the mediocre, and makes the already craven even worse. He makes the vices and defects people have extreme and corrupts everything around him.
That's what I expected. Pelosi will impeach but then delay sending the articles of Impeachment over the senate until the Dem Senate is ready. Schumer will meanwhile proceed with the appointments and house cleaning stuff to allow Biden's administration to proceed. Meanwhile the House and the Senate will commission an investigation and prep up witnesses, and Schumer who loves publicity and fancies himself a showman will put out the stops to show "This is how you make a political spectacle out of an impeachment, Mitch."
