Now that Steve Albini's dead, let's all think about the fact that he repeatedly admitted to purchasing and enjoying child pornography

Here's Albini recounting buying child pornography while in Hamburg:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17151907089245658.webp

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.

And here's him promoting his friend, Peter Sotos', chld pronography magazine:

The cover of PURE 2 is a guy holding open a toddler's puny hole so his spuzz can dribble out. The girl is past crying. She is destroyed. [...] Like I said, I like that sort of thing

Sotos later defended his use of child pornography in cout, stating "child abuse is a sublime pleasure"

Albini also produced an album for Sotos called Buyer's Market, which Wikipedia describes as "sound collages of spoken word samples from parents, law-enforcement officers and victims of s*x crimes and pedophilia". When asked about his relationship with Sotos in a reddit AMA, this is what he had to say:

Peter's an old friend. I've known him for 30 years or so. I'll help him do whatever he wants to do, from wash his car to edit his album.

This is art. This is sickening. This is !dramatards. This is !edgelords. This is nonsense dressed up to justify depraved hedonism. This is abandonment of convention.

This is a dedication to something I'm not sure MIMW saw. This extols the values of evilmaxxing. This is the illogical conclusion of certain contrarian ilthought.

Not in the Pitchfork obit for some reason?

“A lot of things I said and did from an ignorant position of comfort and privilege are clearly awful and I regret them. It's nobody's obligation to overlook that, and I do feel an obligation to redeem myself,” Albini wrote on X in 2021. “If anything, we were trying to underscore the banality, the everyday nonchalance toward our common history with the atrocious, all while laboring under the tacit mistaken notion that things were getting better. I'm overdue for a conversation about my role in inspiring ‘edgelord' shit. Believe me, I've met my share of punishers at gigs and I sympathize with anybody who isn't me but still had to suffer them.”

Stevie was super in love with the word "neighbor" back in the day. Called Odd Future a bunch of neighbors, had a project band called Run Neighbor Run, wanted to name the second Big Black album Hey Neighbor. Speaking of things that lost their edge, after Steve's buddy Adam Parfrey passed, Parfrey's super duper edgy Feral House and Process Media that published Soto's books as well as Jim Goad's and Boyd Rice's stuff are now asking for material related to "the Black Foremothers of Rock and Roll", "Historic Latinx contributors to American social movements, film, and music", and "Female trailblazers to science, politics, social justice, and the arts."

I've just learned about this “Sotos” guy from this post and have just skimmed his Wikipedia page. The cognitive dissonance required by his fans to like, not consider this guy an active danger to children is a little bit scary. There is no possible way this deplorable freak hasn't been pinged by the FBI since the internet's blown up for possession of CSAM. They've got to be using him in some kind of operation to catch more :marseypedo: or something there's no other way he could possibly be walking around a free man. Also side note but partially related he's got to be :marseymerchant: somehow I didn't really look but his last name sounds like he could be
