    You're right, you've thoroughly countered what was a rigorous literary critique and not just a throwaway comment about how the "gross stuff" in a book isn't what makes it bad, but the actual bad writing.

        You're right, I'm sure they literally meant they want child sex scenes in every piece of media. There's actually thousands of secret pedophiles hiding all over the world and we just have to find them and reveal them and then the world will be A Good Place. My mind is definitely not wracked by decades of Espstein-esque conspiracy theories.

        They were right, I was being hyperbolistic but for a joke rather than to support my point. But they were also right about my point which is books can be dark and dirty and immoral and that can be very compelling and is a big part of the joy of reading for me
