Yes.
What I fail to understand is the need to defend the stuff.
I worked for one of the first underground comic publishers out of San Francisco. A lot of the stuff we produced was mind-numbing garbage intended for the diversion of drug-addled minds. In communities all over the country, people would picket "head shops" that sold the stuff because they didn't want their kids exposed to it. They weren't "idiots" and they were entirely right, of course. I still have a titanic collection of comic books. I have an affection for the medium. I have no problem stating that it is mind-dulling nonsense. But I like it.
Some honesty goes a long way.
Defensiveness goes nowhere.
