As long as it's pirated and they don't give any money to the bigot I'm ok with that.

Same as I'm ok reading Lovecraft. The dude is dead and reading his work is not going to make anyone racist, so why not enjoy it?

It's pretty easy to find it used or borrow it from a library but yeah dont give the hateful woman any money

Even piracy increasing the cultural influence of a bigot who's still alive and hurting people. In some cases piracy increases sales.
