Jan: People should not go to the new exhibition of Thornton’s paintings. Thornton will be given a portion of the admission proceeds and Thornton, a violent sociopath, should not be supported.
Kim: Your recommendation is inconsistent with your actions, because you read poems by poets who also were violent sociopaths.
Which of the following, if true, provides the pest basis for Jan to counter Kim’s argument

B．It is quite difficult, if not impossible, for Jan to discover the behavioral tendencies of the artists Jan reads.
C．Kim does not use products made by companies whose hiring practices Kim finds abhorrent.
D．The poets derived no benefit from Jan’s reading their poems.
E．(E) The poets’ violent behavior is better known to the public than is Thornton’s violent behavior.
