"Luckily for prince, other artists can sell things like grimoires or explicit romance novels without being banned/forced to do some other shit to keep the lights on."
You have no idea about the book market, do you? Most writers have a day job to keep the lights on because they will make less than a thousand in royalties. Same goes for most artists and musicians. Even today, all the book outlets can ban your book for absolutely no reason, and you can't do anything about it.
The only artists that Prince helped were artists who were or became famous enough to make so much money that it was stupid for outlets not to sell their stuff.
Small timers still suffer from the whims of the market and have to worry that some Christian will start screaming, "Will someone think of the children?!"
As an erotica writer, my market was cut by over 90% because companies decided to listen to those who supported censorship. Prince did not help me one bit.

Dear Morgan,
You write really interesting articles, but your message gets buried behind your amateurish layout. Update the layout of your blog already, bro! Your words deserve it.
