Now,
I think all of this has to be couched in kind of the overall framing of that.
Like when he was writing about the idea that abortion should be legal, the question is, was it more part of his extreme views of being able to abuse or hurt anyone he so chooses rather than some kind of proto feminism?
This stuff is so extreme that there's this natural tendency to try to explain it, try to give some reasoning, that there has to be some ulterior motive, that there has to be some larger theme driving this.
I think most people would assume it's pornography.
And at times, you know, it's been framed as like the original Fifty Shades of Grey.
But that is to me like a woeful misreading or not a misreading because once again, clearly people aren't reading this stuff.
To me, it's not about, as we talked about, it's not really about pleasure.
It is about power.
Yeah.
And if I may, I wrote this book a few years ago, so I haven't been engaged in it that much since then.
But it came up fairly recently for me in this kind of powerful way.
And this comes back to this concept of power where I'm working at this investigative news outlet here in the States.
It's called The Lever.
And we focus on corruption, political as well as corporate corruption.
And we, like many outlets here and in the UK, focus on the Epstein files.
Yeah.
There's millions of records and I've had some of my reporters spend time on it.
One of them came back to me and essentially is just like, hey, I need a break.
Just reading through these accounts, it's having an impact on me.
