It was degrading pornography.

And like, you know, when I was a young writer and I'd hang out with writers and you'd say to somebody, this story is boring. Every young writer will say, well, it's supposed to be boring because life is boring. And you say, yeah, but that's not how art works.

And in the same way this guy was saying to you, well, it was supposed to be degrading pornography because that was conveying the message that this way of life is degrading.
