Money isn't dirty because it was spent by a poser edgelord.
In fact the opposite! Many would consider it highly moral to consensually extract the maximum possible amount of money from awful people. By accepting their money, you are depriving those awful people of financial power they could otherwise put to use in ways that could harm people.
Keeping in mind though that I'm saying "extract", not "trade." If you sell them something they can use to do bad things, you're not depriving them of power; you're just being part of their path to materializing their power. "Extraction" involves taking their money in exchange for something that isn't itself a form of power. For example, an experience.
(If you're a game developer, consider making an addictive gacha game marketed exclusively to fascists. They give you all their money; you give them worthless rare JPEGs.)
