It turns out that Dahl was a real antisemite, to me that is more of an issue: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/dec/06/roald-dahl-fam...

Turns out a person being something you dislike has no direct bearing on the quality of their writing and storytelling. If you can’t appreciate the latter on account of the former, that’s your problem.

It turns out that this has a direct bearing on my perception of his writing.

For example i don't have to pay for his stories, if the author doesn't like me for the color of my skin or for belonging to people that the author happens to dislike.

I am also allowed to say that these are very objectionable attitudes. And i can also remind other people that these are very objectionable attitudes.

He personally fought Nazis and killed them in WWII.
