We all know that porno is seldom politically correct; what’s more, sometimes we like it that way. Some types of pornography (as well as some sexual behaviors) are actually based on this suspension of the rules: think of BDSM, for example, where except in very rare cases there’s a thick line between sexual and non sexual contexts. I was also aware of hate porno, featuring controversial characters and situations. When I was a kid, in the mid 60s in western Europe, you could buy lurid cartoon magazines featuring Nazi porno, concentration camp orgies and SS sex abuses. Nazism was then the embodiement of all evil. 40 years later things have changed, but not so much.
This stuff has been in the Usenet for years – I’d say since 2001. It seems very light, compared to the hate porno from Abu Ghraib we’ve seen in the news (the dark side of Realcore). Still, it has a strong racist flavor: the helpless blond woman abused by a gang of polysexual, hairy, chadored and turbaned grinning perverts is pretty obvious. But while I find this stuff very objectionable and wrong (and fear about the chain reaction it can trigger), I’m sure someone, somewhere in the west, entertains taliban sexual fantasies and afghan sex scenarios.
