Steve Albini writing on his love for PURE Magazine, an infamous pedophile-friendy underground shock magazine, in which he not only praises it, talks glowingly about the imagery within, but also tips that he’s friends with the publishers.
MASSIVE CW for image of article! Explicit discussion of child pornography, violence, rape etc.
Then there’s the shit in the Big Black tour diary about frequenting underground pornography stores in Hamburg (CW again, pedo shit, graphic descriptions, rape)
spoiler
“The hall we’re playing is on the Reeperbahn: way-cool sleaze strip. Huge gaudy sex shops everywhere. They have many issues of Seventeen, this unbelievably twisted pubescents-fucking-like-weasels mag I first saw in Holland, and they have special Seventeen presents Teenager Action mags, which feature even younger couples in extended fuckoramas. Jaded as I am, I can’t help but flip seeing a girl and guy of twelve or thirteen, tops, ramming Martel bottles up each other’s asses. These are not the Dutch equivalent of abused trailer-park kids, either. They look to be in excellent health and seem to be honestly enjoying this. Makes all the conventional arguments against this kind of thing seem really silly. They’re kids. Kids like to play with their own and other people’s privates. They’re just being photographed at it. Now, people who get a voyeuristic charge out of watching them, like me, I guess, well, we’ve got some grip-on-reality problems. There’s maybe 1% of all pornography that has any effect on me, and it’s definitely not a turn-on very often. But when it is, and it’s as weird as this, it’s pretty hard to take.”
