There's a few ridiculous blog posts online pertaining a narrative along the lines of if you support this artist then you don't condone the abuse and have no empathy for the alleged victims. No separation between music and person and a cancel culture piece. If this man can't make money from his music then what must he do, go flip burgers etc? which raises the question: would the state and/or his manager then be guilty of supporting him? Should he live on welfare handouts? At which point are the government liable? there's no logic, where is the line drawn. The blog writer's clearly want revenge and to simply ruin this guy's life even though he's wholeheartedly apologised.
It's a similar situation to Ducktails and Alex Calder who incidentally make similar dream pop which raises a further question: what is with these jizz-jazzer's making chill un-offensive music and yet owning obnoxious offensive personalities?
Anyway, if you like Acid Ghost I'd recommend the aforementioned artists if you can get past the personal business. If you can't then there's always early Beach Fossils and early Diiv, but then the Diiv bassist was outed as being a bit of a racist so just be ready to cancel him and EQ the bass out for safe listening pleasure.
