Sounds Like A Cult · The Cult of Gooning · 30 Jun 2026 podcast

By the idea of surrendering their life to this higher cause of pornography, they are getting off on it.

So in a way, they are in a pornography cult, but it's just, I would venture most of them, because we're talking millions here maybe, I'm completely making that number up, but it does not seem plausible to me.

There's various degrees of good that we're talking about that wouldn't be so insanely hot if...

I was in every sense and through all the pornography, pornography controlled my life.

And if me and I don't know, a couple hundred thousand other guys did nothing but venerate various pornography goddesses who ran our lives.

So that's like the mainstream of it.

And then you have sort of fringier cases, but we are entering sort of more straightforwardly cult-like territory.

But that's what I got there.

Sure.

I mean, you know, you would hear about people doing these elaborate tributes where, you know, I think a part of the erotic appeal is a eroticization of objection and the idea that the people you're mastering to would never deign to look at you in real life or never talk to you and getting off on that degradation.

Like, I'm disgusting.

So at the most extreme end, you know, you would have people that are erotic.

essentially making shrines to their favorite porn stars and doing what they would call like a daily ritual or whatever, where you're kind of reciting a prayer to that porn star.

I mean, other ways, you know, I've reported on cults, like real cults in my life.

And I mean, there definitely are parallels.

I mean, what I think was interesting, one of them is a disdain for people who leave the community, people who try to break away from the cults, if we want to call this a cults.

And so I remember looking, trying to find people who had left the community.

I'd never, I struggled to do so.

And eventually I came to learn that was because all of these sort of quitting, gooning groups have to be conducted in secret, have to be kind of like very private discords because

If they aren't, then active gooners, people still, let's say, live in the lifestyle, will essentially infiltrate them, perhaps pretend to be people trying to quit porn, and then will flood the groups with, quote unquote, triggering pornography to try to get people to, again, quote unquote, relapse.
