It's for you to make your own mind up given the evidence provided I guess

I really like Morrissey and Bobby Gillespie.

Both of those have said questionable things on race issues, I can still listen to their music and enjoy it but as people I wonder about them. Bobby Gillespie I'm fairly convinced is just on a massive wind-up though.
