Carlos Santana apologizes for anti-trans comments he made during a recent concert
cnn.com
Carlos Santana faced criticism on Thursday when a video of the musician making anti-transgender comments during a concert in New Jersey in July resurfaced on social media.
“When God made you and me, before we came out of the womb, you know who you are and what you are,” the guitarist is seen saying in the clip.
He continued, “Later on when you grow up, and you see things and you start believing that you could be something that sounds good but you know it ain’t right, because a woman is a woman and a man is a man — that’s it.”

You really apply some kind of ideology test when choosing which artist's work to enjoy?
EDIT: Perhaps this hinges on what you mean by "support"
I'm not obligated to patronize businesses or artists who promote things I object to.
No one is obligated to patronize any business or artist (generally speaking). Obligation isn't the issue. But it sounds like, yes, you choose not support/patronize artists who have certain opinions you disapprove of.
I've seen this sentiment floating around the Internet sometimes, and it always strikes me as very limiting.
