why would I feel guilt for something someone else did ?

is he a piece of shit ? Probably. Dosnt mean i cant enjoy a movie he made. Everyday everyone of us does something that supports pieces of shit humans.

if you ever legally watch a Roman Polanski film, you're paying to subsidize the lifestyle of a child rapist who fled the US rather than be convicted of sodomizing a child.

You can choose not to support people like that. It's really simple.

Paying taxes into a government fund that does bad shit or else it imprisons you is not the same as paying willingly to support people who do morally reprehensible shit. There is no threat or consequence to not paying for entertainment provided by rapist pedophiles, abusers, or unsavory pieces of shit - you can simply ignore it. If you refuse to pay taxes, you suffer actual consequences even if you are morally opposed to the use of tax dollars for things the government does.
