The infamous lesbian orgy is actually very thematically important to the story of Chainsaw Man. chainsaw Man is a manga about (among other things) how indulgence in base urges can actually lead us away from the things that would make us happy in the long run. Quanxi adds to this theme by frequently indulging in lesbian orgies and telling Kishibe that she’d rather continue to do that than fight Makima, because “ignorance is bliss.” …and then Makima kills her and everyone she loves. This is a pretty direct parallel to what happens to Denji, which is why the fact that Quanxi also directly tells Denji that “ignorance is bliss” is significant. The arc ends with Denji coming to the same conclusion about ignorance, deciding he knows too much about Power to be attracted to her. But then, in the very next arc, Makima kills Aki, then kicks off the next arc by killing Power, showing that Denji’s willful ignorance about how Makima was manipulating him for the sake of (he hoped) eventually sleeping with her has actually destroyed his life. Having seen the brutality of the world, both him and Quanxi decide that the pursuit of carnal desires is just as valid a goal as any other …but their chosen ignorance ends up ruining them in the end. (Which is also why Denji loses his “dream battle” early in the manga).
So yeah, I’d say the lesbian orgy is actually a pretty important thematic addition to the story.

It's a shame that this is the community that is being cultivated. People should know not to be a peepee in a community, in real life, you get fined, or jailed, publicly shamed, “canceled”, and rightfully so. You shouldn't be an butthole, and if you are, you deserve every negative thing that occurs to you as a consequence of your actions. It's part of learning (for slow learners) how to be a decent human being.
This is analogous to social media bullying, which has driven many people into depression, self harm, and worse. Yet again, given any opportunity, people are going out of their way to both be complete degenerate humans, justifying their own behavior and justifying other people's behavior.
It's as if people don't understand the basic premise of not being complete asshats to those around them by default. If you sexually harass people via text message, instant message, email, etc. you will still be rightfully open to legal punishment. The rationale is because it's still your behavior towards another human being, which surprise, isn't all that different from VR.
VR, for those who are piling on without actually using it, are probably unaware of a concept called presence. This is the feeling of actually being in VR, it would likely be equivalent of someone writing an inappropriate text message, printing it out on a poster, shoving it into your face and laughing about it in front of everyone. People that would willingly do this in real life would be judged for their actions, VR should be no different.
