      @ezralevant Exotic erotica collection being works of Robert Crumb, widely regarded as the world's greatest cartoonist.

      @ezralevant Crumb is easily google-able. In any case, liking a cartoonist isn't weird. Spouting Nazi-style anti-Roma invective is weird.

      @HeerJeet depends on the art. Is the erotica sexist and racist or just regular keep-it-to-yourself erotica?

      Replying to @tim3048

      @tim3048 I'm not even sure Crumb counts as erotica since his work (including the "racist/sexist" stuff) is grotesque satire, not arousing.

      @HeerJeet that's... a lot less reassuring than you think it is

      @tim3048 Grotesque satire isn't supposed to be re-assuring. It counts as art because it confronts us with the darker side of humanity.

      @HeerJeet no, I mean your explanation.

      Replying to @tim3048

      @tim3048 My explanation of what? Liking Crumb's work? Seeing a satire on racism (Crumb) as better than actual racism (Levant)?

      @HeerJeet he addressed the logical mistakes he made and apologized for them.

      @tim3048 Also: using racist rhetoric against heavily persecuted group isn't a "logical mistake" but a moral one.

          @HeerJeet he made some valid points and some invalid ones as I recall. His mistakes drowned out the valid ones though

          @tim3048 Again, what you call "mistakes" was use of the exact same rhetoric and myths that Nazis used to justify anti-Roma genocide in 1940s
